You're exploring ways to connect your Mac Mini and MBP to your AMD 5600x PC using a Caldigit TS3 Dock, aiming to minimize cables. It's understandable you're curious about Thunderbolt 3 compatibility, though Intel typically holds that title. Some PCIe cards claim support, like the ASUS model mentioned, but it seems limited by motherboard requirements and lacks clear guidance. If you decide to replace your board, you may need to upgrade. I'm having trouble locating reliable tutorials or documentation for this specific setup.

These cards are tailored for specific manufacturers and require compatible motherboard headers and support. However, using a compatible motherboard or card setup with built-in Thunderbolt will function properly.
