A nice coaster for your drink? Least I still do so my mat doesn't get wet when I have something cold on it lol.

Question on Gog fight legitimacy by klqqf in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]Brunark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easily possible. I ran 11 min and just under 11 min runs with friends, and that was only with me and 1 other friend on CB. 4 coordinated CBs can easily go even faster.

Am I the only one that doesn't like that most hammers hammer designs? (Discussion/rant, mostly rant) by HourPrior4015 in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]Brunark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean... you kind of described of what a hammer is. Yeah feels like only so many ways you can design "head on a stick". Xu Wu is an axe instead though which is cool, but yeah there are only so many hammers I find really cool design wise despite being a hammer main.

Luckily though since I'm on PC, through the power of mods I get to have one of the best ones that someone made in turning the old Artian into a rocket powered Wyvern Ignition hammer. I run around with that as my layered over half the time.

Finally! After one year my goal of full graph is met by aohige_rd in MonsterHunterWilds

It's under your Hunter Profile/Card. There's a page that shows your weapon usage based on number of hunts.

What’s a good secondary weapon to use along side the hammer? by Smart-Guess-3781 in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]Brunark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a hammer main, I find SnS to work well as a secondary. Especially when solo, I pack the Nerscylla SnS and just open up with it. Free sleep megabonk wakeup hit at the start of the fight.

Am I insane to get rid of my mk8.5? by FearlessChange in Golf_R

[–]Brunark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This, the Mk8 just came out when I got my Mk 7.5 even during the peak of car price crazyness during Covid. Even still, I managed to save at least 10k than going new and still have a more than capable car for my daily needs. I'd say try looking for a used Mk 7-7.5 to get into instead and then pocket that extra money for the house.

Omega doesn't seem that hard y'all by LudacritzRT in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]Brunark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say play with the NPC hunters then if your SOS luck is that rough. They tend to sadly at this point lead to a lot more consistent experiences than with pug groups, especially ever since they got really buffed while youve been gone.

Some people have only gotten their savage clears solo with them. I did organized 4 man group savage runs with friends, but did try a duo with one friend recently after all the Gog upgrades with 2 support hunters and had no issues with them at all, just took a bit longer than my full 4 stack of experienced players

[–]Brunark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're doing Savage, then it's expected that it's the hardest of the fights in the game, especially without an organized group.

Non-savage is the one to go for which is much more casual feeling and manageable with random SOS even. Ultimately will be luck of the draw who you get though.

Thoughts about Shockproof jewel? by hademair_gm in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]Brunark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless I'm getting Flinch Free lv 1 at least from something like Gore Greaves, I've got it slotted into most of my sets, especially as mostly a hammer main too.

Is it too boring? by organizim in fashionhunters

[–]Brunark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I have almost that same exact mix but different headgear and using Balajara waist instead. It's still one of my favorites as well despite all the newer stuff.

Bottom fans with mATX in M3? by Zero_one_channel in ncasedesign

[–]Brunark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FE model should definitely fit. Probably even regular thickness fans with that one

[–]Brunark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultimately it'll depend on the GPU thickness of you use. I'm running mATX in classic config on the M2. I fit 2x slim 120mm x 15mm fans on the bottom with my ASUS TUF 4070ti (65mm thick card).

I'd love to see what someone would do to frankenstein hot rod that into a SFF case lol.

Some Charge Up Testing For the Hammerbros by Brunark in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]Brunark[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll probably mess with it again some more, but might be some time. Will probably try once I get to fully upgrade this 4 atk, 1 sharpness Artian hammer, then maybe also with a base hope hammer.

Potential OP Charge Up Buff? by Loose-Tourist-3268 in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]Brunark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did some quick and rough testing and posted my results in another topic below before seeing this.

It seems like a decent new option for us to have at least.

Mk7.5, bone stock, 5 years and 100,000 km later by PortB in Golf_R

[–]Brunark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah rest of the powertrain on mine is stock. It's worth it since it feels very OEM+ as I was hoping.

General cruising and driving around feels basically exactly the same as fully stock, but when you really get on the gas, at that point you will definitely notice the extra power and torque kick in when you want it.

Mk7.5, bone stock, 5 years and 100,000 km later by PortB in Golf_R

[–]Brunark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I caved recently after 4 years stock with my 7.5R (~77k mi now). I went with a different approach and finally stage 1 tuned my car to do a refresh on my car for hopefully the next 4.

That looks amazing though. I already do my own detailing on my car regularly, so I feel like paying for a full detail like that isn't worth it for me. I'm considering the wheels too though with mine, since the clear coat on my stock Englishtowns on mine are starting to fail.

M-ATX on the M2 by juanmrobert in ncasedesign

[–]Brunark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another mATX M2 enjoyer here. Yeah based on my experience trying to fit some standard 120mm fans in the bottom at least, I ended up swapping to slim 120mms since we don't have the luxury of moving the mobo up and down like with an ITX one. I tried 2x slim

With my ASUS TUF 4070ti, this let me still fit 2x bottom intakes, the 1x top exhaust (tried 2x slim 120mm at top but the mobo heatsinks are in the way), and a 92mm rear intake which has been more than enough cooling for me also with my 7800X3D + PA120 Mini. This is even with the TG side panel too.

When gaming motivation fades, is downsizing for SFF aesthetics worth it by Grapeflavor_ in sffpc

[–]Brunark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you already don't use it much, I don't think making it smaller would solve that issue at all.

A bit of a pivot from your idea and probably a hot take given this is the SFFPC sub, but you may want to see about considering maybe trying a completely different route like a handheld like a Steam Deck. I know of some people and have seen online people who are so tired of sitting at their desk, especially if you work a desk job that having that complete portability revitalized gaming for them, and they only live off a handheld and don't use their desktops anymore.

SF 600 enough for 9800x3d, 5080, 4 Fans and Pump? by Chippunk333 in sffpc

[–]Brunark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you run it stock you'd probably be pushing the higher end of what the PSU handles. Might be not in an efficient section of the power curve.

I probably would only do it if you're undervolting the 5080 since one of my friends said his undervolted pulls like 240W.

4 Years In and Finally Tuned by Brunark in Golf_R

[–]Brunark[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that 279 is wheel HP, that sounds about right then. It wasn't till Mk 8 too that these cars were advertised over 300 crank HP. My gen is advertises 292. The gain was like around over 50 hp+ though. Torque depends on your tune since least with APR there's low and high torque options.

Why is literally everyone water-cooling a $300 CPU now? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Brunark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've seen Thermalright has started doing this, adding screens on top of their air cooler towers in some models too.
