Default Anyone using Apollo with thunderbolt on a windows setup?

Hey folks, considering options for the future and wondered if this is a possible choice. If anyone is doing it with success, tell us(me) how well it works and please include the basics of your computer(motherboard/CPU/RAM).

Nope, just gave us the USB3 version. Motu has a bunch of Windows TB interfaces now, Resident Audio has a couple insanely cheap TB interfaces (bought a T2 for $119), Lynx had a TB card for its interfaces that works, HDN TB works, Focusrite is working on drivers, and seriously I haven't found a FW interface that does not work through Thunderbolt. I even have an old M Audio FW410 that hasn't had drivers updated in over 5 years that works amazing on Windows 10 through TB-FW. Oh, plus we have PCIe still ;-)

I was looking for something that would keep input latency as low as my HD/Native rig, that would not require HD software Thunderbolt seems like the best option, but maybe I need to look deeper into Waves soundgrid stuff
