Latest thunderbolt 3 compatability on AM4 motherboards

I'm in need of thunderbolt 3 for a audio interface but also wish to use my computer for gaming and streaming.

For some reason websites never update their product compatibility lists.

So is there anyone that would know what boards are compatible with thunderbolt 3 cards on AM4 boards?

 

I'm currently looking at the B450 AORUS Pro due to a current offer.

And the Gigabyte Alpine Ridge Thunderbolt 3 Pcie (either 1.0 or 2.0).

But is there a current list anywhere or does anyone know if the newer AM4 boards support it.

it simply means for me, for power for less money.

 

Can anyone help?

X570 Asrock ITX board will have integrated thunderbolt 3 on the rear IO

 

 

And since its an add-in card i assume its gonna work fine regardless of CPU. Thunderbolt is essentially just PCIe over the cable

So you are lacking wattage from the port?

 

 

Iirc thundebolt 3 does 100w. While PCIe only supplies 75. That is probably the issue.
