Hi,

I wish you had mentioned the series of your motherboard.

However, ASUS is currently offering Thunderbolt EXUpgrade card for some its 7 series motherboard.

The supported models have a unique system link connector to cable to the upgrade card which uses PCIex4 slot and a display port to serve up the “bolt”.

The detailed diagrams are mentioned below in fig T, and the support list is provided in fig s.

Please note these cards will be released in July, and the expected cost is about US$ 200/

You can further explore the specs on the following URL.
