Hi, Without a Thunderbolt header on the Aorus Master, you can still link a Tunderbolt device such as the UAD Apollo Mk2 using an adapter (Thunderbolt 2 to USB C) or a compatible add-on card.

Purchase a Thunderbolt 3 add-in card. Prices range around $60 to $100. They require some PCIe lanes, though.

As long as it's not a one-way, that should work too.

With most Mobo's you can't just put in the these add in cards wihtout the thunderbolt header being available on the motherboard. So you need these cards and the header unless I'm missing something.

I realize I'm bringing back an older model, but I wanted to highlight that the Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master includes a Thunderbolt add-on header. You can see it on the side of the image. Also, the Titan card listed there is compatible with this board.

Adding to this discussion, it's clear that the Rev 1.0 model of the X570 Aorus Master lacks a Thunderbolt header.
