Posted November 10, 2020 there are thuderbolt pcie cards you can slot in the motherboard as you would do with a gpu or with an internal sounds card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 10, 2020 Some b550 motherboards come with thunderbolt. But if your motherboard doesn't have it, you could probably use an add in card like this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 10, 2020 Are you sure your external sound card is thunderbolt and not USB-C? If you need a thunderbolt adapter to run a external sound card you might aswell have gone with a internal one If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

Basically you have 2 options: - Switch out your mobo for another one including thunderbolt. There are a few, but i can say which one out of the top of my head. - Get a Thunderbolt PCIe expansion card like the one @boggy77 suggested.
