Hi!
I've the Gigabyte Z170X Designare (2 native TB and one DP input) and the GC Alpine Ridge... but I'm not able to have the Thunderbolt working with the Alpine (TB3 works fine with the native ports). I installed all the drivers, I even tried to use different PCI ports (x8, x4...). I even tried to plug Thunderbolt Docks but nothing happens...
If I plug the Vega 64 output on the GC (2xDP-in) and my LG 5k on the TB3 output, I only have video, and only a 4k resolution.
Any idea ?
I'm exactly in the same situation. I'm pretty pissed at Gigabyte. I even exchanged the 'Gigabyte Z170X Designare' because I thought it was a faulty motherboard. Turns out you can not run a 'GC Alpine Ridge' in a 'Gigabyte Z170X Designare'. The 'GC Alpine Ridge' isnt even recognized. I tried macOS (High Sierra), Linux (Kernel 4.15) and Windows 10. Nothing works! But for what purpose is the "THB_C" header included? It makes no sense.
