"I have to admit that I have no idea how "the new method of Temperature Reporting that AMD Introduced" works nor what exactly that odd term means.
Tools like HWiNFO are reporting temperature read straight from the CPU. What RM does is unknown to the outside world, but I assume it does some averaging of recently sampled temperature values to hide occasional spikes in low/high values. But this is just my assumption...
Saying that they work with us closely is sadly not true, at least for the past months. I wasn't talking much about our cooperation with AMD, but I'm getting really sick of how they treat us (and other developers) recently. Our cooperation was great ahead of and shortly after Zen1 launch, but after that it ceased from their side. They don't provide us with sufficient information, almost all our questions remain in /dev/null or end up with just empty promises. They gave us NULL information about the idle-gate published on reddit, we asked them how to correctly poll CPU threads in order not to wake them up, how to detect sleeping cores, etc, etc.. NOTHING have we got back! Despite many promises, we didn't even get final Zen2 systems ! Almost any reviewer/"influencer" is supplied with all latest hardware, but we (engineers) are being pissed off. So well, yeah... I'm really disappointed with such attitude and it makes me sick when they say that they are cooperating with us.
And BTW.. I have code ready to read all (dozens of) the temperature sensors spread across the entire package of the Zen CPU. I implemented this a few months ago. Bit I haven't released it because I thought that providing such details could cause confusion. Well maybe this might be useful.... "
