Yes, a CR3 can handle Power 7. As per:
http://www-933.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/firmware/readme?fixid=MH01343
We're running a couple of CR2's which will not.
"HMC V7R760 was the last release supported on models 7310-C04 and
7310-CR2." Which leads me to believe that 7.7.7 should work on your CR3.
Check
https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/sas/f/power5cm/supportedcode.html
and
DSPFMWSTS
to ensure that you're ready to rock.

As soon as you get to HMC change your system to upgrade firmware from that
and NOT *OPSYS! Otherwise there is a potential to upgrade your firmware
past that which your HMC will support.

I will say that we went from HMC V5 to V7 after I saw the capabilities of
V7. Awesome compared to earlier releases. We had to step upgrade
hmc-firmware-hmc-firmware-hmc-... to get there. We were really behind.
