Also works here:

Thanks for the reply!
This reminds me of my first Ryzen 2: 11.3 would not get the temperature
right, but 12.1 did.
If I understand correctly, AMD just gives a temperature reading in the
same way on all CPUs, but different models require different adjustment
to that value (with some offset and/or other calculations); see
/usr/src/sys/dev/amdtemp/amdtemp.c.
Heh, since I first discovered that I wasn't getting correct output,
I went straight to svn.freebsd.org/head and started walking the revisions
on amdtemp.c -- even many proposals -- https://reviews.freebsd.org/D9759
for example. But I've grown weary of building world && kernels in hopes
of finding just the right revision. :P
Perhaps this CPU needs a formula which FreeBSD's driver does not have?
Of course this is a wild guess, as I have not access to the specs.
This is what I gathered from reading the source && comments. I read one
where "linux" suggests it starts at -28C. So if I add +28 to my current
output, that puts it about where I would expect it to be. But like you say;
it's all guesswork without the specs.
The CPU in question returns the following in dmesg(8), in case anyone cares:
