Installing 7x cards directly in PCI-E on an X99 motherboard is not an issue at all even if the card has one power plug.
I have 7x 1070 Strix directly installed on PCI-E slots on an X99 motherboard, all good.
Great review, keep us updated !
How is that possible? Aren't those cards double-wides?
Watercooled/Chopped-off DVI ports
Awesome! Picture, please!
Out of respect to
philipma1957 and his efforts to share great information with us, i would rather avoid deviating from the main subject of this thread. [
Review of Galax 1070 Katana GPU]
I'll just share info which is needed for this thread.
7x 1070's can in fact be plugged directly into a X99 (one's with 7 PCI-E slots) and it will work.

thanks and nice photo.
