Wow, that's the second best VEGA card that you can install on a MacPro5,1, 16GB HBM2 is the fastest VRAM that you can have bar none.
Cheaper than a RX 5700.

Cheaper than a RX 5700.
I'd return the RX 6600 and buy the VEGA FE, it's even better than a Radeon Pro WX9100, with a faster HBM2 VRAM and really mature macOS drivers.
Has anybody ever had success running a TB2 Falcon Ridge card in the cMP5,1 ?
I have one of these lying around here, I guess it is from HP or Dell and should use the same chipset as the MacPro6,1.
It would be a perfect fit for my UA Apollo with TB1 port, which won't work with TB3 chipsets (not even on real TB3 Macs), but works with the 6,1.
I once tried the card (Slot 4) but nothing was detected, but didn't try to bridge the header. I guess I would need to flash some kind of MacPro6,1 Firmware on it.
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!

Looks like he is working again…
Read that it is dsm2 but not sure if it’s true.

Correct. It should also work on version 1 cards. We've had good luck with the previous version of this firmware (NVM33 for the Designare Z390 motherboard), so we may actually see some improvements here. On the other hand, previous updates to the GC-TITAN RIDGE (NVM43 and 50) have been regressions (broken xHCI) and actual Mac firmware has left much to be desired (only one port functional). I haven't done any testing yet because I've been busy with something more interesting...
I've successfully interacted with the PD controller and fixed the UltraFine no-wake issue! Since the display now works just like on a supported Mac, I suspect that Apple does something similar for proper Sx entry and exit flow (if only I had some schematics...). I'm now designing a small PCB for the card. Very exciting!
I wonder if this hardware modification would be useful in general. Do other Thunderbolt devices have wake issues? If so, I may design the hardware for wider adoption.
Maybe but it’s not modified… didn’t test it since I put all my efforts in maple ridge, but I send everything Titan Ridge related to CaseySJ… Everything I could share…Another recent possibility for better compatibility with Thunderbolt 4 devices:

Yes, fabrication houses typically make a minimum quantity. I'm thinking that it will be a very small board that connects to the card's 5-pin header. The PCB will provide the logic, but a few modifications to the card will be necessary to make it all work.Are you going to make multiple pcbs?
I haven't really faced these issues with my setup, so it's difficult to say. My display turns on by itself once macOS has loaded, even on cold boots. And on warm boots, it shows the bootscreen and has functional USB ports as well as brightness and volume controls. Almost everything already works very reliably. Before my fix, the only power cycling that I needed to do was after wake-from-sleep.
I believe that the key to having an image on cold boot is the order of the DisplayPort cables. In my case, the cables cross each other: the left-most port on my RX 580 (installed in my Mac Pro) is connected to the right-most port (port 1) on the GC-TITAN RIDGE.
Actually, you can find the modified version here:

Yes, have run Kext Utility didn't fix Didn't get to the bootable backup section yet. Yes, can boot into recovery. Did you also update Clover when you updated Lilu and WhateverGreen? Do you still have the USB install disk? (This was used to install macOS.)
It has the ARC system turned off and the external connection manager turned on. Those are the necessary modifications for Mac. It also includes modified configuration straps.
I saw the Titan Ridge datasheet that you posted over there. I'm sure they'll find it useful. It was actually posted here on MacRumors a few weeks ago. I found the Alpine Ridge datasheet (which you originally provided—many thanks!) to be much more useful for understanding Apple-related settings. It seems that they stripped some details (particularly, key chicken bits). I suppose Maple Ridge is even worse, given that Apple never adopted it. Good luck with your project: I'm really looking forward to it!
I have tried severals firmware the one is working with is V23 Elias and Apple Firmware from Installer in USBC Monterey but to make the two thunderbolt ports working both is a nightmare !!! So one in daisy chain
Could someone please modify the TB3 SSDT or show me how I need to mod it so that I can use my PCIe USB 3 card in slot 3?
When I install my Sonnet USB3 PCIe card into slot 3 my TB3 card disappears but when I remove it, the TB3 card works.
My config is
Slot 4: Titan Ridge 2.0 TB3 Card
Slot 3: Sonnet USB3.2 Type-C PCIe Card
Slot 2: Startech PCIe Dual NVMe Card
Slot 1: RX 5700 XT GPU

The sonnet card create troubles for titan ridge sell it and buy a U25 inateck works great together
If there's truly no way to fix it then I'll just sell it and leave as is. I got it with the mac pro, but was hoping to get it working. Seems I have a similar problem as someone else did here and they edited the aml file to fix it.
you will have to look at the ioregistry explorer and make a note of the path changes (with and without sonnet card)
