Even with a euro card, even with a dollar card, baht will fall out, and only baht.

And if another "currency" of the CIS? For example, our Kazakh tenge? Also convert to baht?

the card can be in any currency, but when withdrawing, there will be only baht. the exchange rate will not be very good because there is a double conversion in your bank, first in dollars, and only then recalculated in baht. I heard that in some bank branches, namely branches, and not exchangers, you can withdraw dollars from the card if you have a passport, but I didn’t withdraw it myself, the information was not verified by me, there was no need.

why do you need dollars in Thailand, all payments are made in baht. Make a dollar card at home and everything will be fine in Thailand.

the conversion rate is favorable for the reason that the exchange rate is always underestimated, and when converting from a card, the rate is official. For this reason, a favorable exchange is ultimately obtained. They always give out only bahts. The only difference is where to get the money. If you withdraw from an ATM, then you will need to pay 150 baht for each withdrawal, regardless of the amount. You can withdraw a maximum of 20,000 or 30,000 per withdrawal, depending on the bank. In Krungsri Bank (Ayutthaya Bank, yellow ATMs) you can withdraw 30 thousand and the rate is always higher there. I use this bank all the time. You can also withdraw money from a bank branch. In this case, there will be no withdrawal fee. But a prerequisite is the exact match of the name and surname on the card with the name and surname in the passport. If at least one letter does not match, the money will not be issued.

Tell me, in general, is it more profitable to go with cash (with dollars) or with cards?

Ideally, you need to take both cash and a card. Cash must be in large denominations and in good condition. For small bills, the rate is worse, the rate differs depending on the denomination of the bill. Wrinkled and old banknotes will not be accepted. Well, for safety, having both cash and a card is convenient. Do not carry a lot of cash with you, everything happens in life.
