Not compatible with eGPU on AMD motherboards

Installed on an AMD Gigabyte Aorus X570 Ultra motherboard that comes with the Titan Ridge (Thunderbolt 3) controller of the previous generation is compatible. Although very well recognized, the Intel Thunderbolt Center refuses to authorize the external GPU case, provided that PCI tunneling is not enabled in the BIOS! Even if you disable device authorization and actually enable tunneling, it still doesn't work. My understanding is that TB4 requires Intel chipset and VT-d DMA protection. It sucks

Pros
  • Two Thunderbolt 4 (USB Type-C) ports
Cons
  • Anything I can add
