Multi Cameras ?

Hi Guys,
I am looking for info if any of you have done or managed a Multi Camera setup !
The setup I was thinking of doing was to use a [ PCI-E to USB 3.0 5-Port Expansion Card with 2 Internal USB 3.0 Ports PC AC581 ] then to connect 5-7 webcams to this card.
Each camera would have its' own address I assume.
But once I have done this how many cameras will I be able to view at once ?
Would you have to open 5-7 copies of yawcam to view ?
Has anyone tried multi camera setups and if not using yawcam what did you use ?
Help and advise needed.
Many Thanks

yes multiple instances of yawcam.

i dont think the 5 port card could handle the inflow. I tried it on my inatek 5 port and only 2 would work at 1080p. If you reduce it to 720p it will probably work.
