    Yes, didn't identify the USB controller in the thunderbolt dock but the USB devices showed up so manually added the devices attached. Works on VGA though DisplayPort into dvi is corrupted and red, though I suspect a dodgy eBay dock.

     

    Actually having a world of issues still as I am getting awful dropped frames running a vive headset from the VM (was running non vive games just fine), going to try to work these wrinkles out over the next week, but they're not related to the thunderbolt,  already tried with and without. I thought no it's to do with the USB tcontroller the vive is connected to but pass through and cpu pinning doesn't seem to help.

    What motherboard and cpu did you use. And was ot a thunderbolt pci add in card .  I have been looking  at doing this  

     

    Display using thunderbolt 3 for each users.

    Billington Mark,

    I want to make one PC with multiple users(about five people team) small office environment that can connect each tables just one cable as thunderbolt 3.

    So that each people can use 4k resolution graphic and USB(Keyboard and mouse and etc..).

    But thunderbolt have limit distance 3 meter as copper cable.

    So you can see the thunderbolt 3 extension cable over fiber that have limit distance up to 60 meter as below URLs.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunderbolt_(interface)

     

    So wants setup multiple thunderbolt 3 PCI-E cards in one PC and than install UNRAID software and connect each thunderbolt 3 port for each users.

    Actually, I don't need GPU performance for our office environment.

    Do you understand what I mean?

    Is this possible?

    I'm wondering  if you got this to work 

     

    What board did you use.?
