I would like the ability to support thunderbolt 3 5K monitors when they are released in the next few months. How important is it to purchase a motherboard that has a thunderbolt 3 port on it or do you anticipate that the nvidia 1070 cards will have thunderbolt 3 ports once the monitors are in broader circulation? I really want to get a smaller ATX board but none of those seem to have the thunderbolt 3. I know that the new nvidia cards are not currently supported, but I am curious if I can get away with using the integrated graphics using a bad monitor and then upgrade to a 5K monitor and a new nvidia card once they finally get supported.
As an aside, how do the thunderbolt 3 ports even work when they are on the motherboard? Would you just buy a supported video card and plug it into the motherboard instead of the video card and then set that up in the bios?
Thanks!
