How did they convince you to buy those cards? Not trying to be a downer, but they are overpriced for what you get.

I'm still waiting for even unofficial evidence of this. So far it's been nothing but hearsay.

The only evidence I've seen thus far is people having trouble physically getting 5 video cards (not gpus) into place. But 4 double-gpus seems to be ok (meaning 8 gpus). Still waiting on some evidence either way.
The company building my 3x6990 system says windows isn't recognizing the 3rd card. I told them to test again with Linux, we'll see how that goes.

I don't think anyone has found any 'official' document on this, but it appears Windows is limited to 4 GPU's.  Linux can handle up to 8.

I recall hearing that windows has a GPU limit that prevents running 3x6990's because that would 6 GPU's total. What is the windows limit and is it possible to run 3x6990 on Linux?
