Thunderbolt works great and is supported out of the box and you need it to power the second display, I have the HDMI/ Thunderbolt adapter you describe and it works great in tandem with the native HDMI. In the bios you can pick which port is primary. I guess I should mention that not all monitors play well and some users have complained about not getting 4K resolution although most sorted that out. Cable quality can also make a difference and in some cases the HDMI firmware needed updating to resolve issues.Another question regarding the dual display setup. I need both connection to be HDMI, therefore I need to purchase a converter. Is the Thunderbolt port working in Catalina, thus I can buy USB-C TB to HDMI converter? Or do I need to buy the DP over USB-C to HDMI converter (as I see Intel specifying the other port as DP)?
I see the SSDT-USBC in the config.plist as UsB-C fix, is this for the TB?
Thanks in advance.
The USB-C fix is to enable the USB-C port to function as designed.
