My fps is trash all of a sudden

I usually get around 60-70 fps. I have capped it to 60 fps. But today when I open Val, I'm getting trash fps like 20-30. Please help me

A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago

yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
You can see the CPU utililization
A.C.E

i hv did every fps guide i could find
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
How high is that Have you done this guide before you got bad fps?
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
98%
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Like ever Damn I think you might need a new cpu for val idk
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
why all of a sudden tho
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Cos 98% I think damages the motherboard
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
i play on a laptop ;-;
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
And 70-80 is pretty high You got a laptop cooler
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago

yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Shouldn't be reaching that high though
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago

You got a graphics card Idk if you can balance the graphics and the CPU Pretty sure it's only cpu based
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
intel uhd it sucks im getting a new gaming laptop but in april
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Ah You got any thermal paste Idk if thermal paste is meant to go on laptops though Never tried it
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
it does
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Cos there's no fan on top Ah You got any that can try on that cpu?
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
i also play csgo i also got 70-80 fps only in val
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Did the frames affect that too? Not cpu problem then Wait is csgo cpu based?
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
yep
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Show me your settings in val Display settings
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago

yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Huh Have you tried putting normal resolution
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
1280 x 800 Graphics all at LOW Fullscreen
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
1920x1080
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
lags alot
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Bc modern ones might perform worse on lower resolution Nvm Does it affect your fps alot when you move your crusor Cursor
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
nope I used to get consistent 60-80 fps until today
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
So you haven't changed anything at all before you got the bad fps
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
nop
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
You got any background apps Such as discord Affecting valorant
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
nope
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
You close all your tabs playing val? Like every application
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
yep
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Except valorant Does val run smoothly at the start then gets worse overtime when you power your laptop on
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
no
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
What r Ur csgo settings Similar to val?
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
the home screen is just as smooth but range and maps all lag yrp
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
What is Ur fps limit on menu etc 60 right
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago

A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago

yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago

What's your fps limit when on battery

wdym'
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Like in settings There's like the fps limit thung What do you have it for on battery Max fps on battery
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
60
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
So it dosent stutter Like if you stand still It will always be 20-30
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
yes and when i move it gets worse
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Do you use your laptop for anything else Like work/school
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
yep
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Cos factory resetting might work but doubt Cos csgo works fine Try putting all your settings to default and changing them back?
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
will my files get deleted>
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Yes That's why I asked 😔 No clue what to do
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
let me see after my cpu get cooled
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Try lowering the mouse update Like if you aggressively move you mouse around Does your fps get significantly worse In game
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
nope like yesterday it was fine no lag
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
You've tried restarting laptop too ri g t I don't think the CPU is the problem though
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
yep tried it
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
If it works fine before with the same temperature Wait have you tried playing csgo After you got the trash fps
A.C.E
A.C.EOP11mo ago
nope i gtg now
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Try playing csgo and see if your fps decreased Ah cya

U seem to know alot abt laptops etc can u maybe help me too? I always had abt 150 fps but now when I start a match its smooth for abt 5-10 mins but after that the fps drop down to 60-80 and sometimes lower
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Probably the CPU's fault Does it often overheat after a certain time Cos that's what my old laptop used to do Went from 100 to like 30-40 after a few mins from overheating

Not sure I'm wearing a headset
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Press ctrl shift esc
LXV
LXV11mo ago
damn that sounds like it
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Then go to performance Is the CPU usage like rlly high
LXV
LXV11mo ago
I cant check rn I'm still in school tbh
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Idk how to check temperature without going in bios (might need 3rd party app) Ah Lmk when you can Currently 11pm for me though
LXV
LXV11mo ago
Can I send u the link of the laptop?
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Eh won't do much Cos there's a bunch of reasons that could be the cause
LXV
LXV11mo ago
Idk much abt cpus n stuff
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Valorants a cpu based game If your cpu like overheats it probably gets damaged Reducing performance
LXV
LXV11mo ago
oh dang Is there any way to fix it?
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
Thermal paste probably But if that's not the case, more simple solution Also you could use a laptop cooler Had a bit of effect on the low end laptop But would decrease in performance after a game or two of comp
LXV
LXV11mo ago
can u tell me what that is? (sry)
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
It's like a thing that prevents the cpu from heating up Apparently you can use it in laptops But you'll have to open your laptop up And find the cpu and apply it which is a pain Especially if you don't know much about computers
LXV
LXV11mo ago
oh ye ur right
yuhanlk
yuhanlk11mo ago
How old is Ur cpu What gen

you can always undervolt if your cpu is constantly overheating turn off background apps and high cpu usage will most likely not damage mobo it just lowers cpu lifespan if you play on windowed fullscreen you should switch to fullscreen lower resolution and also try using multithread rendering also turn off hardware accelerated gpu ^should be in properties

^for intel cpus, windows platform, use throttlestop, goated if u were experiencing higher than before temps, repasting thermal grease is the first thing u should do
