CPU Temperature always 0 on AMD Ryzen 7 8700F (Phoenix/Hawk Point)
Hardware:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 8700F (Phoenix architecture, Hawk Point)
- Motherboard: GIGABYTE B650M K
- OS: Windows 11 Home 26200.8246
LibreHardwareMonitorLib version: 0.9.7-pre675 (nightly)
Issue:
Core (Tctl/Tdie) temperature sensor is detected but always returns 0.
All other sensors (Load, Voltage, Clock) work correctly.
Sensor dump:
{"Name":"Core (Tctl/Tdie)","type":"Temperature","Value":0}HWiNFO64 reads the correct temperature (54°C) on the same machine, so the hardware is accessible.
Code used:
var computer = new Computer
{
IsCpuEnabled = true,
IsGpuEnabled = true,
IsMemoryEnabled = true,
IsMotherboardEnabled = true,
};
computer.Open();
computer.Accept(new UpdateVisitor());Expected: Temperature value ~50°C
Actual: Always 0
Any help appreciated. Happy to provide additional debug info if needed.
