    Pretty impressive, but I’d personally be more excited to see Thunderbolt peripherals come down in price.

      Hell, I’d settle for thunderbolt peripherals working reliably. Maybe it’s just a Linux problem (or maybe I don’t know what I’m doing), but I’ve never had a thunderbolt dock “just work” as advertised.

        Same, and I was on windows. Constant disconnects or trouble connecting to monitors

          Yeah monitors are my primary problem too. Can’t get them to work properly at all through the thunderbolt dock.

        Interesting. I hadn’t thought of it before, but I have a Thunderbolt 3 dock that works fine with Windows via both USB-C and Thunderbolt - whereas my Steam Deck (in desktop Arch Linux mode) doesn’t like it very much.

      Never gonna happen with them pushing this speed boundary as much as I’d also love prices to go down. I’d also like to see more PC compatibility for Thunderbolt hardware on motherboards (besides ASUS)
