Who know anything about this device for Apple Thunderbolt Display?
As it stated on official site - it makes new Apple laptops with Thunderbolt 3 ports to work with earlier Apple Thunderbolt Display (not USB-C port, but Thunderbolt 1/2).
Who knows - if it work with any Thunderbolt-3 (type C) integrated motherboard? There are a lot of Gigabyte motherboards nowadays, which have TB3 output to Thunderbolt-3 Displays!
So, what if I buy one of these motrehboards for Hackintosh and this adapter? Will it work in OS X? Or does it need additional drivers? I'm almost sure that it doesn't need any drivers, everything works on hardware level (Thunderbolt 3 -> Thunderbolt 2 signal).

There also several motherboards (AS GA-Z170-Gaming) with miniDisplay port IN to be connected to discrete graphics and then it sends signal to Thunderbolt 3 output. Will it works either? Or easier question: will motherboard Thunderbolt 3 monitor output works in Hackintosh?
