Maybe it's worth to add memory temperature, memory/soc power and TGP alongside just GPU chip power? Feels kinda weird to have those missing.

Memory voltage and SoC voltage might be an option too. Also effective GPU core clock is useful (RDNA2 also has clock stretching, moments).
 
You might want to not cut screenshots this way.
No idea, what program is that on the right!? :)

HWInfo64. Sorry, thought the screenshot would be too large otherwise.

Here's a pic with the program title and all the sensor readouts.

you should know what program that is since you´ve been on this site for 22 years.

When posting I found you can click and drag to change the size of the image if it ends up being really large however I don't know if this ends up reducing the actual file size on the site.
For reducing the overall file size I tend to rescale images in paint or snagit to around 1000 pixels width (and corresponding height) then copy and paste from there since I end up taking 4k screenshots a lot.
 
As a note, I'd like to point out the important sensors missing:
- Memory Junction Temp
- SoC and Memory Power
- Total Graphics Power (really important)
- Effective Clock (to check for clock stretching, like on Ryzen CPUs)

The "maybe" sensors (maybe add them as hidden but selectable?)
- Core/SoC Current (has a role on controlling clock speeds)
- Thermal Limit % (has a role on controlling clock speeds)
- VR VCC and VR SOC temperatures (too hot = bad)

The GPU Core Power readout currently is wrong. It reads ASIC power, which is not the actual GPU core power (as seen on the screenshot)

Can confirm this on my RX 6800 XT as well.

I always thought it was weird how little was shown on GPU-Z and RivaTuner for this card compared to my 5700 XT.

You can use HWInfo as a source for RTSS, which is what I did. Seems like both Afterburner and GPU-Z measure RDNA2 power consumption wrong because it reads the wrong sensor. To be fair, ASIC Power is (usually) pretty close to TGP.
 
@W1zzard sorry for ping, but is there any plans to make RDNA2 sensors appear on GPU-Z?
 
Lil' bump, but RDNA2 is still missing most sensors.
