After some effort I have succesfully managed to update my rig from Sequoia to Tahoe (by clean installing Tahoe). The details of my rig are in my signature.

I have working wifi via heliport and itwlm
I have working sound via VoodooHDA
I have working bluetooth
I have working USB ports

All seems to be working fine and fast. The only thing I could not manage to do is to make AMD Power Gadget to work. I get an error message everytime it loads as if I don't have the necessary kexts installed, (but I do). See the attached last pic.

Please post your EFI AMD Power Gadget hasn't been updated in sometime.

Please see attached.
Ofcourse I erased MLB, Serial Number, System UUID and ROM entries.

Also the AMD power gadget kexts are missing as I deleted them since they were not working (but were the latest ones available).

I was wrong, AMD power gadget is working on mine, the only difference I see is expose sensitive data I have set to 10. Give this a shot.

Unfortunately, it did not work. Thanks anyway.

Ok, it is not so important since everything else works fine. It was just a nice thing to have.

Just to check, I just place the two kexts (AMDRyzenCPUPowerManagement, SMCAMDProcessor) inside the kexts folder, update the config plist, and install the AMD.Power.Gadget app (and reboot). Is there anything else I should be doing...?
