had same issue as well, had to install zenpower

My Steam Deck is no longer giving me cpu Temps in Performance Overlay
Not sure if it works the same on a Steam Deck, but for desktop Linux, I use zenpower - https://github.com/ocerman/zenpower

Using mango hub and GOoverlay
From what i could gather the default k10temp might not see power draw. Arch wiki recommends installing zenpower, here is link with instructions for Ubuntu. CPU frequency I have no idea, it should work OOTB.

Temperature sensors for Ryzen ?
Lastly, I found this thing called zenpower. Installed the module, and loaded it, but lm_sensors just does not seem to even see it...

Chips and Cheese: "Alder Lake's Power Efficiency – A Complicated Picture"
That said, there is Zenpower and Ryzen_SMU, but they're one-man-band projects, and I don't think they have any official help from AMD.

Temps and Clock speed stress test 5950x w/ AGESA 1.2.0.5
You can get more sensors that are exposed via the SMU (like SVI2 TFN) via zenpower and ryzen_smu.

C-States Ryzen 9 5900x
That being said, you can likely find more detailed monitoring info using this tool instead since it shows power, voltage, frequency and C-State residency all in one app.

12700K vs R7 5800X in CPU-Z Stress Test (25mins) using Noctua NH-C14S in 21°C Ambient
You can read through that blog post if you're curious (there's part 2 dedicated to the software measurements). There is no official software that reports that, but you can use the reverse-engineered tool (it's for Linux though).

Which is the correct CPU temperature? - Ryzen.
How can I state all this confidently? Because I've reverse-engineered Ryzen Master myself and even wrote a Linux driver to show you exactly what Ryzen Master shows. In fact there's a lot of information it leaves out as well. I haven't ported it to other processors aside from my own 3700X but this spinoff project does add support for the 5000 series and quite a few other 3000 series processors. If you're looking for a "Ryzen Master" like monitoring tool, that will almost certainly work.

4 core 5 GHz, Is it possible to keep the boost clock as a normal clock if thermal and power are enough like Intel? what is preventing the clock to keep standing? I turned off one CCD on my 5950x and the maximum power consumption is 117w for the 8 cores and thermal is acceptable 73c which is fine.
Windows tools don’t show that FIT limit but you can view them on Linux. Use that tool and experiment, I’m gonna bet that you’re hitting FIT limits preventing it from boosting higher and consuming more power.

Ryzen 5600X High PPT draw when idle
In fact, HWiNFO64 and Ryzen Master both pull their information from a sub processor called the SMU. You’ll see this if you open HWiNFO64 and look at sensors. Some will have an ‘(SMU)’ prefix, indicating the information source is the same. This project essentially does the same thing but provides even more detailed info into power consumption as it shows other RoC rails in detail.

Try this. Should give you even more information than RAPL or the amd_energy driver.

[General Question] I've seen mixed answers regarding 5600x voltages. As a new 5600x owner, what do I trust?
For the 5000 series (since although I have reverse engineered the basics for them, I didn’t invest time to port my monitoring tool for those), you can use a derived project from mine called Ryzen monitor that would also show you this.

If you'd like more in-depth monitoring, you can use this which would give you results like this.

How to monitor per Core Temp on 5800x?
If you’re using Linux, you can view them. Needless to say you can’t do this on Windows unless you port that functionality to it, otherwise you’d need to stick to the regular Tctl/Tdie/Tccd temperatures.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing zenpower and ryzen_monitor you can also consider the following projects:
ryzen_smu - A Linux kernel driver that exposes access to the SMU (System Management Unit) for certain AMD Ryzen Processors. Read only mirror of https://gitlab.com/leogx9r/ryzen_smu
zenmonitor3 - Migrated to Gitea
ryzen_smu
ZenStates-Linux - Dynamically edit AMD Ryzen processor P-States
corectrl
zenmonitor - Zen monitor is monitoring software for AMD Zen-based CPUs.
Renoir-Mobile-Tuning - Control power and temperature limits on AMD Renoir powered laptops.
cacule-cpu-scheduler - The CacULE CPU scheduler is based on interactivity score mechanism. The interactivity score is inspired by the ULE scheduler (FreeBSD scheduler).
