The "A7N8X Build thread Fact and Findings" and "A7V8X Build Thread" are linked to below. These are still open, but rather than add to them, it is recommended that you post a new thread. As threads get large, questions and answers tend to get repeated. These threads have gone past that and become very difficult to search through.*
To make looking through these large threads easier, it may help to go to your "User CP", "Edit Options" and check "No" for "Show Users Signatures", and "Show 40 posts per page" for "Default Posts per Thread". You can then go to the post and click "Show a Printable Version" and use your browser's "Edit-Find" to search (albeit page by page).
If anyone has specific links to valuable areas within these threads, PM me and we'll get those links put in place.
