No more GPU Temp. readings after Nvidia Driver 545.84
Doesn't seem to be in issues yet. Updated to PM 0.6 downloaded from the Intel website. I no longer get GPU temperature readings:
Restarted the service and everything to no avail.
System:
- Up to date Windows 11
- Up to date NVIDIA Gaming drivers
- NVIDIA RTX 4070ti
On the other hand, the CPU name gets detected now, which is great. Sadly, nothing else works other than CPU frequency (AMD 5900X)
Also, updating wipes your custom layouts. Would be nice if it didn't, I don't see any situations where I'd actively want layouts deleted on update. Thankfully, I had a backup of my main layout from uploading it in a previous Issue here.
Thanks for submitting the issue. We didn't update the NVIDIA portion of the code so I am not sure why it would behave differently from version 0.5. We'll test this out and see what's going on. Thanks again!
The issue only appears if you update your NVIDIA drivers to version 545.84 and newer. Driver versions 537.58 and lower don't exhibit the issue. It's not 0.6 specific.

Interesting. I'll test a variety of configurations and confirm if this is the case. Thank you.
Last week we debugged this and can also confirm that from NVIDIA driver version 545.84 and later the NVAPI function GPU_GetThermalSettings() has changed it's behavior. In addition we have found the NVML function DeviceGetPowerUsage() now returns "NVML_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED". This essentially means that now both GPU Temperature and GPU Power will report back NA using the latest NVIDIA drivers.
We have a question out to NVIDIA with regards to the changes and hope to hear back soon. We can workaround the changes in GPU_GetThermalSettings() but before we make changes we want to get feedback first. We'll update this thread when we have a direction.

I tested that the core temperature can be obtained through nvmlDeviceGetTemperature()
