Not sure in IOReg, since it's not activated by doing by doing the traditional pin jump. I can see the GC-Alpine/Titan in IOReg since they jump easily.
I was reading this post:
testing TB3 AIC with MP 5,1
Every time someone says Pin 5, they actually mean Pin 1. Look at the pictures of the Thunderbolt header in motherboard manuals such as the Asus Z97-DELUXE or GA-Z170X-Gaming 5. Then look at the add-in card header cable. The photo above ( #1,040 ) shows the add-in card's male header with a...forums.macrumors.com
"Anyway, the reason jumping pin 3 to Force Power works is because pin 3 in the GC-TITAN RIDGE has 3.34V compared to ground which is enough to do Force Power (jumping pin 1 to pin 4 would also work). This doesn't work with all add-in cards. Pin 3 on a GC-ALPINE RIDGE only has 0.6V. This is why I use pull up resistors to SATA 3.3V power for both GC-TITAN RIDGE and GC-ALPINE RIDGE (I also pull up pin 3 and pin 4)."
Any suggestions before I dig into using pull up resistors?
Just to get me on the same page:
Are you using the same SSDT for the GC-Titan/Alpine card(s) for the EX3?
If so, are you putting the EX3 in the same slot that the GC-Titan/Alpine is supposed to go in?
If so! Can you send me the SSDT you're using?
