    77 degrees is pretty normal, GPU's these days are running very hot. What are your CPU temps? Hotter than before? Could very well be that your case is chocking your system.

    Unless you're travelling light, it's well worth also packing a small power extension board of four sockets.
     
    In my experience (budget traveller, cheap hotels in various S.E.A. nations), there are never enough convenient power outlets on the walls. Or some of them don't work, or are so badly maintained that they can't even retain the weight of a charger without falling out of the socket.
     
    If you have multiple things to charge, or are travelling with another person, it's worth being able to simultaneously charge. Phones, camera batteries, smart watches, laptops, tablets, whatever else. These days many travellers will have more than one device to keep charged.
     
    Also, with a power board, all your existing chargers will work nativly, and you only need a single conversion adaptor for the country you're visiting.
     
    I can't speak about voltage differences, as I don't know where you live, or where you're going. But it may be a consideration, and an important one to know about beforehand.

    I have a universal power adapter from a local department store, can convert to or from UK/AU/EU/US/JP through various sliders and switches.
    USB is the same everywhere so that covers a lot of things.

    Most modern power supplies are universal, designed to run on any combination of voltage and frequency around the world. (You'll see them marked with something like "100-250v 50/60hz".) They just come with a plug that matches the target market's outlets.
     
    If you're going to a developed country and your power supplies are universal, you might have an easier time finding adapters once you're there. (If they're USB devices, that's even easier.)

    Sounds like everything you're taking can be charged from USB? If so, I'd suggest something like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Charger-SPLAKS-Universal-Worldwide-More-White-White-B/dp/B08Y6D9N76/ref=sr_1_19

    check that everything you wanna take with you is suitable for different mains voltages all A/B Plug countries have 115 V mains and not 230 V like in Europe so if your devices are not suitable for different voltages, a simple adapter wont work. So you a traveling from an EU country to north Amerika ort the other way around?

    What kind of crack are you smoking and can I have some?

    Steve wasn't angry, he pointed out factual errors and explained that people rely on these charts to buy new tech, so they should be accurate, if a GPU has a 300% increase in power over the previous generation and someone buys that card seeing nowhere near that increase they will feel lied to by LTT.

    It doesn't matter how many accurate videos someone produces, if you produce inaccurate videos and present those as fact it's still wrong. Stop shilling for LTT, they can handle it themselves.

    No need for them to comment either, they said what needed to be said, LTT needed this, and if they change for the better then GN will have accomplished their goals. They wanted LTT to do better, not to fail. And if they did this privately it would have never gotten anywhere, swept under the rug.

    Would have been cheaper just to retest the cooler with the proper GPU instead lol

    They were false and inaccurate. They literally posted the wrong charts and destroyed a small company because they couldn't be bothered to test the cooler with the correct GPU (which they send together with the cooler)
     
    Not needed, that's a courtesy, LMG is a company, not a person.
     
    Interested in some examples, please show me some.

    And LMG makes an apology video in which:
     
    Multiple sponsor jokes (not funny or cool in an apology video) Direct dialogue plug of an LTT screwdriver Merch link in description of video APOLOGY VIDEO IS MONETIZED If anyone wants to complain about GN demonetizing their video and having no merch links or mentions of the specific merch in the video dialogue, but that it merely appeared silently on screen, what LMG did in this apology video was far worse.

    The community -is- noticing.

    This thread exploding being the latest example, Youtube being a comedy fun day ripping Linus a new one.

    You don't get to:
    1) Blame other Youtube outlets.
    2) Falsify data.
    3) Give incorrect data.
    4) Auction off someone elses property.

    And think all is okay while blaming the community.

    Very informative, criticism is not an attack, blindly defending LTT for posting inaccurate information is not a good look and makes people look like a fool. People are/ were attacking GN as if they themselves kidnapped their dog.
