Long Loading Screens

i have an intel i5 core along with nvidia mx230, after agent selection i only load into the game at around round 2 making me get afk penalties. if someone queue dodges i stay in the agent selection screen and load into the new match either after the agent selection causing me to get a queue dodge offense or i load in with about 5 seconds left.(please help ive stopped playing the game due to these issues)

the gpu might be letting u down but how much ram do you have? personally anything below 12 is a no no and around 16 is a standard also if your game is on a HDD move it to an SSD if you ahave one

This is an issue with files loading off of your disk. You might have a HDD. If you do, you should defragment it or get an SSD and place Valorant on it. Use windows key + r than type "dfrgui" to check what type of drive you have. Learn how to defragment: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/defragment-your-windows-10-pc-048aefac-7f1f-4632-d48a-9700c4ec702a
Solid State Drives (SSD) and Hard Disk Drives (HDD) are data storage devices. SSDs are usually much smaller, thinner, and offer more storage volume, speed, and efficiency compared to HDDs.

That's not enough windows alone takes 6gb. But anyways to get the best results here. Ensure that Windows is installed on your ssd which will than make the ssd a C drive. Than ensure valorant is on the C drive aswell I just gave my last c cleaner pro key away otherwise I could've give it to you Install razer cortex and do a system clean etc Than optimise your game through the Same app Choose what you want to keep open while the game is running so for example discord, anything else check it so it closes After that when you run the game it will optimise PC and clear ram to give as best results as possible

Use windows smartsense, ccleaner (sketch), or even better bleachbit. If you want the most performance out of your SSD leave about 250gb free :) Cortex is bloatware LOL

what if ur ssd has about 7gb space left :/ cortex is telling me id get about 144fps without optimisation and im getting 20 which drops to 10 :))
