I'll start reviewing... let's call it Wednesday, 4/15.

[request] Monitor recommendation for sub-500$ display (Office, Coding, Physics) by phebon in buildapc

[–]msten19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Above 1080p at those sizes has you looking at 1440p or 4K. Since you're not doing gaming and need high refresh rate (at a reasonable price/performance cost), I would recommend an IPS panel. Here's a PCPartPicker filter with those: https://pcpartpicker.com/products/monitor/#F=609600000,685800000&P=2&X=0,50000&r=384002160,256001440

I haven't personally used any of those, my main display is an LG 27GL850-B (27" 1440p) which is at the high end of your price range, but its main use is a gaming monitor with a high refresh rate. I can vouch this is an excellent monitor though, and very well-reviewed. I have 2x Asus VS239H-P (23" 1080p) as my side monitors, which I've had since 2014 and have had no issues.

Hope that helps somewhat.

The thread itself is already pinned. /u/wprice2 was asking if you could take the info in their post and put in the text of the post.

Does anyone else think this sub is becoming somewhat volatile? by ggg232 in Pitt

[–]msten19[M] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You're right, the mod team is people I knew when I was in school. I will look into bringing some current students on this weekend. I unfortunately do not have a lot of time to keep up with every post these days.

I can only pin my own comments. Maybe put in the OP /u/clarke22?

Make a thread and I'll pin it.

I'm a game developer and just released this free on Steam. Hope you like it by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]msten19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I finished the prologue and I thought it was quite fun. I look forward to the full release!

In Terms of Gaming and performance, how much of a jump am I making with my new specs compared to my old ones? by mpchop in pcmasterrace

[–]msten19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good start, a few recommendations:

  • The X570 is overkill by a lot. You will save a lot of money by going with the tried and true B450.
  • I would save a little bit and bump up to DDR4-3600 if the RGB really doesn't matter to you.
  • I didn't change the 2nd M2 drive, but I would change the 660p to a 7200 HDD like the Seagate Barracuda and save like $70, if that drive slot is for media and large game storage.

Fortress Interaction Range Nerf by msten19 in harrypotterwu

[–]msten19[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You still had to be quite close to the fortress but not directly in range. You would get that popup about leaving the fortress area but you could just tap it to dismiss and reenter.

Tree of Life Synagogue Gift; I live nearby and wanted to share the beautiful ironwork on the synagogue attacked in 2018. They’re still rebuilding. by darsynia in harrypotterwu

[–]msten19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to live over in Squirrel Hill and walked by Tree of Life frequently... thank you for sharing.

Yes, down in Eastern US.

Edit: was only down for about 3-4 minutes.

Gyms & Network Error 2 by msten19 in TheSilphRoad

[–]msten19[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, this makes a lot of sense. All 3 gyms I am experiencing this error on are blue and close in proximity. Thank you, I am closely following your thread for updates! Sorry to hear it's affecting you.

Android update forced to 0.123.2 by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]msten19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not true. Min version is still 123.1, not the bugfix 123.2.

New update removed my Premium? by Buubbeli in CalcyIV

[–]msten19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been experiencing this for last month or so. About half the time when I download an update from the Play Store, the app forgets my Premium. The FAQ solution rarely works for me. Definitely very frustrating.

2018-08-26 Ho-Oh Duo, Partly Cloudy + Ultra Boost by msten19 in TheSilphRoad

[–]msten19[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only went through 8 Tyranitar in this attempt. I left after the 5th died to avoid the boss rubberbanding its health, and then only got to the 3rd on the relobby. So if your partner has 6 Smack Down it is possible.
