I can't stand it anymore, is anyone else getting random "hitching", no matter if I'm gaming or watching youtube... I can't figure out what the issue is...

I don't, everything is smooth so far, however If I push the OC too far or have set bad memory settings this "hitching" or what I assume is what we used to call "stuttering" appears. I never saw it while watching any media tbh .
 
The board came back to life. Unfortunately, the first BIOS is permanently damaged and unusable.
I think there is a way to fix this
Once you have booted to m-flash, I believe you can move the BIOS switch to the damaged one and start the flash.

@Svet will be able to verify if this is possible.

3 main culprits.. if you have tried addressing these 3 and have not seen any improvement, then I'm not sure as I have not had any hitching issues myself.

1. MSI Afterburner: disable the power and power % monitoring or don't use Afterburner at all. See if it goes away.

2. Realtek Network drivers: if you're using 10.73, try uninstalling them and use default windows NIC card drivers or try 10.74 driver.

3. Disable X3D Gaming mode in BIOS.

Unfortunately not, that was my last resort, and it is actually a valid MSI recovery procedure. However, nothing happened; it seemed like it would start, but the progress bar just turned white and never moved past 0%. After several attempts, I decided to leave the motherboard on BIOS B, updated it to the latest version, and it has been working ever since. This was the first time I experienced such a catastrophic failure on an MSI board, and I've had quite a few ACE boards in the past. I wanted an ACE for my 9800X3D, but since MSI kept silent and never provided any official information, I opted for the CARBON WIFI, only to witness the X870 ACE being released for Computex 2025. Even reviews called the CARBON WIFI the "NEW"ACE , FFS! Very lame from MSI if you ask me.

ok i disabled the power stuff in afterburner and updated the realteck drivers, lets see how this goes

The Realtek drivers at 10.73 were the biggest change that got rid of my stuttering, though properly tuning my RAM definitely helped as well. Hopefully it works out for you too.
Power monitoring in Afterburner (and other video card apps) has definitely been an issue as well.

So far, what I witnessed on my settings and tuning is less temperature, which is good in my book, don't see any major performance increase, but also not decreasing performance, or having any trouble applying my tuning settings. However, it is still on AGESA PI-1.2.0.3c, and I saw D released for other manufacturers (ASRock)

Thank you for info. Sadly if it’s still C, I’ll wait for next with D.
 
Dear MSI Support Team,


I hope this message finds you well.


I am writing to formally report an ongoing issue with my MSI MPG X870E KARBON WIFI
, which I have been experiencing since purchasing the product. Despite multiple attempts at adjusting BIOS settings, including voltage configurations and overclocking parameters, the motherboard consistently fails to maintain stable voltage levels after system reboots.


The system appears stable initially — all settings are applied correctly, and stress tests in Windows complete without errors. However, after one or more reboots, the settings no longer function as intended, leading to inconsistent performance and instability.


Given the nature of this behavior, I suspect there may be a manufacturing defect or firmware-related inconsistency affecting the board’s voltage regulation functionality.


My questions are as follows:


  • How do you intend to resolve these issues?
  • Will you accept the motherboard as a defective unit and proceed with a replacement process?

I would greatly appreciate your guidance on the next steps, particularly regarding whether I should return the unit for inspection or if there is a potential BIOS update or workaround that could address this concern.


Looking forward to your prompt response.


Best regards,
:( :(
