You also can use https://github.com/asus-wmi-boards-sensors/asus-board-dsdt, I
have collected DSDT from bugs and asus support site. I suppose
that all ASUS X670 bioses will have same dsdt definitions.

Some of dumps contains register definition like in P8H67-ASUS:

```
IndexField (HIDX, HDAT, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve)
{
	Offset (0x04), 
	CHNM,   1, 
....
	VCOR,   8, 
	V12V,   8, 
	Offset (0x23), 
	V33V,   8, 
	V50V,   8, 
....
}

```

Have you caught differences in DSDT definition that broke WMI call? 
I see similar definition of WMI methods in X570 and X670 dsdt and by first look
everything should be good. 

Like:
X670
```
....
Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0C14") /* Windows Management Instrumentation Device */)
 // _HID: Hardware ID
Name (_UID, "AsusMbSwInterface")  // _UID: Unique ID
Name (_WDG, Buffer (0x3C)
{
	/* 0000 */  0xD0, 0x5E, 0x84, 0x97, 0x6D, 0x4E, 0xDE, 0x11,  // .^..mN..
	/* 0008 */  0x8A, 0x39, 0x08, 0x00, 0x20, 0x0C, 0x9A, 0x66,  // .9.. ..f
	/* 0010 */  0x42, 0x43, 0x01, 0x02, 0x72, 0x0F, 0xBC, 0xAB,  // BC..r...
	/* 0018 */  0xA1, 0x8E, 0xD1, 0x11, 0x00, 0xA0, 0xC9, 0x06,  // ........
	/* 0020 */  0x29, 0x10, 0x00, 0x00, 0xD2, 0x00, 0x01, 0x08,  // ).......
	/* 0028 */  0x21, 0x12, 0x90, 0x05, 0x66, 0xD5, 0xD1, 0x11,  // !...f...
	/* 0030 */  0xB2, 0xF0, 0x00, 0xA0, 0xC9, 0x06, 0x29, 0x10,  // ......).
	/* 0038 */  0x4D, 0x4F, 0x01, 0x00                           // MO..
})
.....
Method (WMBD, 3, Serialized)
{
	Local0 = One
	Switch (Arg1)
	{
....
		Case (0x5253494F) +
		{
			Return (RSIO (Arg2))
		}
		Case (0x5753494F) +
		{
			Return (WSIO (Arg2))
		}
		Case (0x5248574D) +
		{
			Return (RHWM (Arg2))
		}
		Case (0x5748574D) +
		{
			Return (WHWM (Arg2))
		}
......
		Default
		{
			Return (Zero)
		}

	}

	Return (Local0)
}
```
