Connectx-7 and vsphere 8.0 beta

Does anyone know if any of the new cx-7 ethernet nics can work with the beta of vsphere 8.0?

So far, only support to CX6 ESXi7.x, you need wait for future WMware ESXi release.

I was told and there is reference to vsphere 8 in the nvidia documentation that the cx-7 nics are supported.
