Hi,
I am having a real hard time finding information on this so I figured I'll try to post it here. I'm looking at buying a new monitor with an integrated usb hub like this : Dell usb hub monitor
The problem is that it has power delivery but max 90w and my laptop has a 135w power adapter. I saw when searching on Google that some people said it could be bad and others that its kinda ok, but no definitive answer.
We have usb c hubs at work and when I connect my laptop to it, everything works perfectly but the laptop always get super hot, is this what happens when the power delivery is not enough?
In any case, I don't really care about the power delivery, it's mainly for the usb hub. So here are my actual questions

In any case, I don't really care about the power delivery, it's mainly for the usb hub. So here are my actual questions
- Is it bad to have power delivery less than the power adapter
- If I dont care about charging through power delivery, can I just leave my power adapter in and will my laptop take that power or it will freak out
