Using EVGA Flow Control 2.0.5. Did a complete uninstall of 2.0.4 (including driver via Device manager) restarted and BOOM! temps are reporting for my Ryzen5-1600x! YAY! 
Problem though. Reading about 20 degrees Celsius higher than both HWmonitor and Ryzen Master.
Screen shot attached of all 3 combined and what temps are being reported.
I know there was an issue early on in the Ryzen life cycle that had temps reporting 20c above actual. Figured I'd post this and let the devs know what's showing.
If need more info, please let me know

    Correct, X Ryzen CPUs (lik e my 1600X) report die and sensor temps differently due to a 20C offset AMD decided to put on them for whatever reason. The Flow Software is reading the the sensor temps (temp with offset) instead of the die temps (true temps without the offset).
     
    That, along with the non-modifiable, absurd temp limit of 60C still makes managing fans through the Flow software not viable. The fans ramp up to 100% when the 1600X hits 40C, which may be caused by something as simple as opening your browser or watching a movie. These two things really need to be fixed ASAP. Th way I see it, Ryzen support is still very bad.

    All I wanted was a simple fix by putting an "offset" field in the dialog.
     
    That was nearly a year ago ... still nothing.
     
    It's a shame because EVGA make one of the best liquid coolers, and if it worked, software as well.

    Yeah, I just recently bought the CLC 120, and not being able to create curves for my 1700X is incredibly annoying. Currently looking around for a solution to this.

    Hey Jondoty, 

    What version of Flow Control are you running?

    For anyone else with this issue, the latest version of flow control allows you to set your fan curve based on coolant temp. When you click the 'curve' button, check the box for the popup for 'FAN CURVE for Coolant' and adjust your curve as you see fit. This gets around the offset built into the ryzen cpu and keeps your fan from constantly revving up/down while idle.

    I've been emailing and asking about this for over a year as well, putting a curve on the coolant temp is not a good solution by the time the coolant temp gets too hot the CPU would have been way beyond safe temps
