Hello again! I Have Gigabyte Alpine Ridge Thunderbolt 3 PCI-Express X4 Card, Mac OS Big Sur 11 and OpenCore 0.6.3.
0. I have learned manual on page 1 on this thread
1. I've added SSDT-PLUG.aml and custom for Z370 (_SB_.PCI0.RP21 slot 4 path) SSDT-TB3.aml to folder OC/ACPI
2. After that I've added TbtForcePower.efi (to folder OC/Drivers) and ThunderboltReset.kext (to OC/Kexts)
3. I have inserted strings in config.plist for thunderbolt works (UEFI->Drivers->TbtForcePower.efi), (Kernel->Add->ThunderboltReset.kext), and (ACPI->Add->Two AML files).
Result:
Without SSDT-TB3.aml External TB3 drive works fine until sleep or hotswap. after sleep it's ejects, hot swap not working at all
With SSDT-TB3.aml:
1. I can see TB3 SSD in disk utility, but he has unmounted and I can't mount it to use, error appears.
or sometimes after a few times restart computer to windows, power it off and power on again
2. SSD TB3 drive shows up, but after 30 seconds from Mac OS startup, SSD TB3 drive Samsung X5 autoejects and doesn't mount again.

All files attached, what I can to do with this? Thanks

Why Internal Graphics is Enabled when you're using a supported AMD GPU?

IOReg is still corrupt.

1. I used internal Graphics for Intel QuickSync for 4K@60fps videos, because my RX570 have only 4GB memory.

2.
in IOReg I choosed File -> Save a Copy As
I add .ioreg in filename and try - it's opens for me

As per the guides on this forum, you can have H.264 and H.265 with your RX 570.
Use v2.1 of IOReg.
