fps drop when I see enemy

Whenever I see an enemy my fps plummets I have done almost everything to optimize the game and it gets 60 constant sometimes without anything in bg but as soon as I there is even slight background activity the fps drops like crazy and game keeps hanging whenever there are too many things to load like ability or players. Laptop: core i5 8th gen

Ig it's something to do with the processor In 2021 I tried the game on a i7 and it worked just fine even without a GPU but it seems that a mid low end CPU can't handle valorant efficently

acatto10mo ago
fullscreen just fucks up my monitor idk why

and set it to some settings lower it makes ur resolution lower so ur computer doesnt have to generate that many pixels per second so itll give u more frames
acatto
acatto10mo ago
frames is not the issue, it's just that its literally lagging if i see an enemy
Braden
Braden10mo ago
yeah your frames drop wait u mean as in ur ping spikes or ur frames drop

Please set the custom resolution to your native resolution
acatto
acatto10mo ago
it is to native apparently disabling monitor drivers makes valorant confused and sets it to my main monitor to native
Saucywan
Saucywan10mo ago
hm Wait so the issue is fixed?
acatto
acatto10mo ago
in a cursed way, yes
Saucywan
Saucywan10mo ago
That's great What is your native resolution? It may be an issue with that, or of course just the drivers
acatto
acatto10mo ago
1920x1080 using the latest nvidia drivers

If there is a natural problem with it it needs to be edited manually I've seen issues where the in-game menu doesn't respond when in full screen
acatto
acatto10mo ago
for some reason valorant keeps changing my gameusersettings idk why
Saucywan
Saucywan10mo ago
That file is just for logging purposes and isn't actually used as a config file So changing it won't do anything But that does not apply to the display file GameUserSettings . ini ^ Is for your actual display settings
acatto
acatto10mo ago
this is kinda irrelevant to the title but
Saucywan
Saucywan10mo ago
While RiotUserSettings . ini
acatto
acatto10mo ago
yeah that

Is a fake config file
