I wanted to check if it would work with any USB-C dock. I guess it only works with the switch one. I might mention that about the dock to the mum tomorrow

Ooof be careful. A lot of switches got fried by aftermarket docks back in the day, they use specific voltage

  It straight up didn’t work and she’s brought it in since. It’s more that I could bring something like the Bazztop in and it would just work with any of the docks, but the switch needs its own shit to be able to run. I thought USB-C was meant to be a universal standard

    It’s not the usb C per se, it needs the ac adapter (in the dock) to give the gpu enough balls

    You’d think a dock that can run a big fat Dell laptop and two monitors could power a Switch, but those docks often have their own processors which could throw things off a bit.
