Yes I noticed that as well, as shown below. I'm hoping this is a bug in the kext...

I’ve attached a before and after cinebench r23 screenshot. I’ve also included a cinebench screenshot from the same machine running windows.

Hey @Elias64Fr! Thank you for don't forgot me. I tried the firmware with all of this: MB cable on, MB cable off+ 3-5 pin connected, SSDT-SocGpePatched.aml+SSDT-TbtOnPch.aml+SocGpe off, SSDT-TbtOnPch-Gigabyte-Z690-AORUS.aml, SSDT-TB3-HackinDROM.aml. No TB tree, not even UPSB. Video it was working trough TB card. I discovered in ACPI, SSDT-9-A M I.aml with native Gigabyte TB Tree. Maybe, can be used. Best regards!

Hi StefanAM, Could you share the SSDT that successfully enabled Alpine Ridge? Thanks in advance

For Z390 use attached. But you need to adapt to your ACPI. And genuine firmware.

Nothing on RP09, with and without SSDT.

OK, Could you try this new one ?

Hi StefanAM & Elias64Fr,

Thanks!

I will try both and get to you asap

Hey @Elias64Fr! Same like before. No TB tree, nothing under RP09. No TB tab in BIOS.

I can't do nothing more... You should be able to power-on thunderbolt device with GPIO-Force-power pin of card TB header. I don't think that matching TB header of your motherboard is compatible with GC-Alpine-Ridge.

Thank you Elias64Fr & StefanAM

Tried Alpine Ridge with both OC/CaseySJ and Clover 5142 on Aero G.

The result here is no TB tree. Neither with original bin nor the modded. The modded actually bricked the card
Also tried adapting SSDT-TbtOnPch-Gigabyte (RP05) to Aero G, but unfortunately did not have any luck with this either (attached). Maybe I have overlooked something?

Titan Ridge is reasonably ok though (with boot support disabled to avoid stalling during startup when using Firewire adapter). Shut down occasionally causes restart.

I'll try.
