Hello! Inspired by Linus Video on Thunderbolt 3, I purchased a Corning TB3 25m cable and a Gigabyte Titan Ridge 2.0 card that fits my motherboard (GIGABYTE Z690 UD DDR4). The issue is that the card doesn’t seem to connect properly with the cable. It works fine with regular Thunderbolt cables, which suggests the problem might be with power delivery through the cable. I’m not sure why it’s behaving this way. Before buying a new motherboard for around 500€ just for this connector, I wanted to ask if there’s a better Thunderbolt card than the Titan Ridge 2.0 that works well with the Corning cable or if anyone has any suggestions. Thanks ahead of time, frustrated Tatsu!
