It's a question that a friend asked me last night. He plays games so often nd have live streaming at the same time. He'd like to buy 970*3 to have sli nd change his cpu nd mobo.
I just know 9AC features capture card to have great live streaming nd 4way sli.
Anything special so it is worth buying 9AC or just 7? or to buy another video card with 7?

There are differences but mainly features not performance exclusives. Is the 9 really worth it to most, no. A Gigabyte X99 SOC Force and also MSI X99 X-Power you may find better for that kind of setup, especially if he decides to get 4 cards, because as you said the gaming 7 won't hold 4, which it doesn't.

The Gaming 9 AC, Gigabyte SOC force and MSI X-Power are all E-ATX form factor compared to the Gaming 7's ATX.

Of the lot the X-Power is the best but the SOC would be my choice, a solid board from gigabyte.
