AMD Threadripper 1920x - incorrect temperature and frequency data

[sisumara]

Hi

Using latest 0.2.1 version of kext and have incorrect temps and freq data on Power Gadget.

When power gadget showed 66C in my integrated in mobo monitor I had 39C. Also I have enabled Core Boost feature in BIOS so frequencies isn't fixed as showing power gadget.

MacOS 10.15.3 AMD Threadripper 1920x Asus x399 Zenith Alpha

Thank you

Are you sure your mobo is showing package temp instead of heatsink?

[sisumara]

It is showing Tdie temp according to HWinfo64 in Windows. The same temps is visible on motherboards OLED display.

Oops, I don't have a 1920x to test but seems like it is reporting Tctl?

[sisumara]

I think so. Maybe I can help you with testing?

[trulyspinach]

Sure. Reporting Tctl is the expected behavior for now. There is currently no plan for adding support for extra sensors.

Relating to the frequency problem, I believe since macOS have no PM support for AMD processors the frequency should be fixed when Core Boost is enabled. But unfortunately I am unable to confirm that as well.

The problem of inaccurate readings also appeared on 2990WX. I used zenith extreme. APG showed that my power occasionally soared to hundreds of millions of watts. So I thought the developers did not test for 2990WX!

[trulyspinach]

I have tested and verified that reading on Threadripper 2990WX is correct. @orkoid The spike in power reading was caused by an overflow in older version of the software and have already been fixed.

I will hide your post since it is not related to this issue.

I have a Ryzen 3950X and I'm having weird lectures too :(

I have ryzen 5 2600 and temperature not correct (23C, in HWinfo64 46C). Can you fix it? Thank you.

[sisumara]

With latest release I have correct temperatures and frequencies. Thank you
