Yes - your Tomahawk Z790 motherboard is compatible, provided it is an ASUS listed Z790 model and has the required Thunderbolt 14-1 pin header for the Thunderbolt EX 4 card (as specified by the manufacturer). Important details: - ASUS states that ThunderboltEX 4 is supported on Intel 500 series and later motherboards with a 14-1 pin Thunderbolt header. - The official list of compatible models includes several boards based on the Z790 chipset (examples: ROG STRIX Z790-E, PRIME Z790-P, TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS, etc.); check whether the exact model "Tomahawk Z790" appears in this list provided by ASUS. - In addition to belonging to the Z790 chipset, the physical presence of the Thunderbolt 14-1 pin header on the motherboard is required for correct installation and operation.

The Thunderbolt EX 4 () controller card is only compatible with ASUS mainboards of the Intel 500 series and newer, provided they have a 14-1 pin Thunderbolt header. Your MSI MPG X570S Edge MAX is an AMD mainboard and therefore does not support this card.

The ASUS Prime Z690-A motherboard is compatible with the ThunderboltEX 4 card. This compatibility is due to the motherboard's support for Intel 500 series and later models with a 14-1 pin Thunderbolt header.

The Thunderbolt EX 4 card is not compatible with the ROG STRIX Z370-F GAMING motherboard. This card requires a 14-1 pin Thunderbolt header, which is available in Intel 500 series and newer motherboards. The ROG STRIX Z370-F GAMING motherboard does not support this function as it belongs to the Intel Z370 series.

The ASUS ThunderboltEX 4 card is not compatible with the Prime H370-Plus motherboard of your PC. Here are the reasons: - The ThunderboltEX 4 card requires a special Thunderbolt header on the motherboard, which is present on the ASUS Intel 500 Series and later models with 14-1 pin Thunderbolt headers. - The Prime H370-Plus motherboard belongs to the 300 series and does not have such Thunderbolt headers, which excludes compatibility with the ThunderboltEX 4 card. As for the display with touch function, the ThunderboltEX 4 card supports DisplayPort 1.4 and can therefore provide 8K Ultra HD output, but only when used with a compatible motherboard.

It is exactly as you say: The DisplayPort connections are inputs so that you have your "normal" GPU outputs available on the Thunderbolt/USB-C signal. Regarding access to the data from both devices: It should be possible to use Thunderbolt as a network and thus be able to access shared hard drives from respective other computers. However, both devices must support this.
