Yeah that's the new "cheap PC" standard, I would not pay money for anything older (except as a collectible, that' a thing).

Yeah no, I give away older all day. Not worth actual money. But for business use, which Mturk well qualifies for,790 and above and you're fine. They're still "modern".

Using a 790 USFF right now. As I said I have an older Precision workstation I have 8gb ram and two video cards for, will shortly be up running 4 and maybe 6 monitors. Need to figure out where to mount the extra monitors.

If your laptop is relatively new, and has a DisplayPort output for a monitor, and your monitors are relatively new - DisplayPort 2.0 supports "chaining" and you can chain up to four monitors (probably three on a laptop) off your machine.

If it's a gaming laptop you shouldn't have a problem running multiple monitors.

It is relatively new but not super new - https://www.cnet.com/products/acer-...i5-6200u-8-gb-ram-256-gb-ssd-us-international

Mine is in psychology. And I got it last year...

But I'm going to be going back, probably for social work. Had no luck getting into PhD school, but the schools I applied to had less than 5% acceptance.

Mine is in Philosophy...those were the good old days.

What would you put on those monitors? I'm assuming you have other stuff you do besides mTurk? Six seems like a lot. Although...

LOL $4.52 but I still have very few exciting quals.

Also did not catch any C-SATS.

For most of us (the normal people) catching those is a total coin flip. I was lucky enough today to catch two. Wowsers! If they show up tomorrow our situations will most likely be reversed. Have faith!

I don't have any quals, really. Caught some really good surveys earlier.

I have an affinity for moral psychology as it applies to politics. Absolutely fascinating.

That was fun

What's the qualifications? And is there a TO for her, because I searched her name in TO and there was nothing.

it's a qual that doesn't come around often.. pretty rarely these days actually. i missed it when it came around the last time.

Well no DisplayPort but it has HDMI and VGA so in theory you could use the laptop screen plus two monitors.

Aren't those old OCMP5's or "5's"?

Better off searching her name in the forum search.

Which will get you her now name, her old name, her quals, and what we think of the HITs.
