Have you also seen BSODs with TB3 Hotplug with the X570 Taichi and the GC-Titan Ridge AIC?
Also, if PCIe 1 and PCIe 3 are occupied I noticed that the slots run at x16 and x4, not x8/x8 like the specifications would suggest, can you confirm this?
Hi,
I was very excited about an AMD system that officially supports TB3 and chose the ASRock X570 Taichi partly because of that.
Since ASRock does not offer a Titan Ridge Thunderbolt controller AIC, I got the Gigabyte GC-Titan Ridge dual port AIC .
The X570 Taichi is running UEFI version 1.70A
Gigabyte AIC installed in PCIe slot 5, USB 2.0 and TB Header cables are plugged in
Thunderbolt is enabled in motherboard’s UEFI
Using the latest versions of Win 10 1903 and the Thunderbolt drivers (1.41.648.4)
[X570_Taichi_Layout]
Additional details:
3700X, no overclocking
2 x 16 GiB Crucial ECC DDR4-2666
GPU: Radeon Pro WX8200 in PCIe 1
0.5 m mDP-mDP (1.2) cables from GPU to TB AIC
The TB3 AIC is very firmly installed, doesn’t jiggle at all when plugging a device into or unplugging it from its type c ports
The BSOD also appears when plugging an USB thumb drive into a connected USB hub so there is absolutely no mechanical stress on the TB3 AIC.
Ethernet: Intel XL710 QDA2 in PCIe 3
All devices including X570 chipset with latest publicly released drivers available at this time
Issue:
The two Thunderbolt 3 Type C ports seem to work fine (tested various adapters, USB 3.1-SATA adapter, USB-C to 4 x Type A 10 Gbps USB hub)
When plugging a component into or unplugging one from the TB3 type C ports I get a BSOD
Something strange:
The GPU in PCIe slot 1 is a PCIe 3.0 x16 device, the ethernet adapter in PCIe slot 3 has a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface; I thought that these two devices would share PCIe lanes, so both would run at x8. However HWiNFO shows that the GPU is actually running at x16 and the ethernet adapter only at x4.
How can that be?

Any idea what’s causing this? I know that this is an unsupported configuration but I hope it can be fixed.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
