It looks like you are trying to change your resolution settings in VALORANT. Here's how you can adjust your resolution:
1. Go to the Video tab in your settings menu, which you already have done.
2. Under the "Graphics Quality" section, look for the "Resolution" dropdown or similar option.
3. Choose your desired resolution. Make sure it's supported by your monitor.
4. Click "Apply" to save the changes.
If you still don't see the resolution options, try running the game in windowed mode first and then switch back to fullscreen after changing the resolution.

is it only showing custom?
and nothing else?
only custom
@Bruhmare
is the resolution diffrent from the one u normally use?
can you change the monitor option?
yeah
it doesnt show anything there
hmm
Can you try changing fullscreen to windowed fullscreen?
i did
nothing happens
And windowed?
nothing happens

What cable are you using for your monitor
are you using dvi?
the blue one
with the screws
Vga?
yeah
Whats ur monitor
acer
is it a gaming monitor
somethn
144hz?
Why are you using vga for a gaming monitor
Use DisplayPort
that might fix it
60hz ips monitor
if i lower the resolution it gets 75 hz
the cable?
but I always use vga
Yes
whats your monitor to begin with
i started my pc and my display resolution was changed by its own
like the model
lemme check
you havent touched anything right
when it suddenly changed
to custom?
The problem here is that your computer is not detecting your monitor
Which is why valorant is using a ghost resolution
making it custom
yeah it's not detecting it
Acer SA242YE 23.8 Inch Full HD IPS Ultra
I started my game and it showed custom
This has never happened before?
no 1st time
Probably because windows auto updated driver settings or smth
And it like unrecognized your monitor during the update
it didn't update
Show me your nvidia settings
The change resolutions part
rn I deleted the driver
but it was not showing the resolution that i use
Okay try redowbloading it
You should get hdmi instead if you can
apparently that monitor cant use dp
I have hdmi
lemme try
aight
it shows no signal
The hdmi is connected to the motherboard yes?
yeah
Try connecting it to the gpu
my motherboard is 20 years old
it only has 1 port
and the gpu?
730
wdym 730
what did you ask ?
my GPU??
no connect the hdmi to the gpu
Gpu to monitor
my pc only has 1 port
of hdmi
what the
Your gpu is the GTX 730?
GEFORCE GT 730
Yeah

yeah
PLug into that
exact
input not supported
Did you show me that unplugged one
or before you plug it in
plugged
And its on hdmi mode right
Like this menu

Should be a button somewhere on your monitor

You can try this once your monitor connects

with hdmi
Can you go the Device Manager and see if it shows your monitor or "Generic Monitor"
just a min
This is mine
my pc is fucked
Why?
there are cables all around
it takes 5 min to start
Are your cables unorganized
i don't have a good table
how do I download the GPU driver
From nvidia website
it shows my windows doesn't support this version
I have to use the old version of driver
can't use the latest
Right now you are using vga right
yeah
hdmi isn't working
Isnt working like No signal or just doesnt show anything
no signal
hm
Is it possible for you to get a new computer? or you are stuck with this one
nah my parents don't buy me a new pc
they think it's a waste of money
my cpu is
I3 3220
8gb ram dd3
Apparently few others have the same issue as you
hm okay
Seems to be the same as yours
did they get the fix?
Im not sure ill keep looking
okay
how do I install the driver
aghhhh
Driver for the gpu?
....
Right click the Generic monitor in device manager and click update
or install
since you said you deleted it
TF I DONT DEE MONITOR
Could you clikc on the thing below help
where it scans for hardware changes
just a min I'm restarting my pc
Okay
which headphones do you use
hyperx
the cloud stinger
i see the monitor how
now**
Great
it says it's already updated
Ok so its already installed
so what now
Nvidia control panel shows any thing?
it doesn't detect my GPU
control panel doesn't show
Ah no wonder your hdmi wasnt working.
š
earlier it used to work
Now check Display adapters in device manager
This is mine for example
Display adapters is your GPU
doesn't show my gpu
how rich are you
Uhhh haha
my pc is like 250 dollars
Have you downloaded the GT 730 GPU Drivers?
If not you can go to the nvidia website and click on Drivers on the top right
Oh youre already downloading it
this is what I get always when I try to install the latest version
Are you using windows 10 or earlier
win 10
win 11 won't work
Hm win 10 should be fine
Let me research this error
dont
1 try to fix it for 1 month
i*
1 month??
When did the custom resolution problem occur
no i meant the driver
i have many problems
Do you play anyother games?
custom resolution occurred todwy
gta v
minecraft
that's all
Have you played minecraft recently after the problem
I've played gta today
before starting valorant
Did it feel laggy?
than before
no
everything was fine
see about my driver
Try gta 5 now
because your computer isnt detecting your gpu
GPU doesn't detect
won't work
gta
ye something happened with the connectivity with your gpu recently
about my driver previously I had installed the older version of my driver because the latest wouldn't work
might be
okay well the problem isnt about the drivers anymore since you said it was working before and it suddenly doenst detect gpu
but to fix the problem we need our GPU to he detected
to be*
Yeah
so how do I get it detected
if i install the latest version it wouldn't work
Can you make a new post on gpu suddenly not detecting cuz google says outdated drivers or similar
done
Im not well experienced with that
GPU detec38
detected
wha
What did you do?
Oh yeahh
windows automatically installs the driver which is compatible
Okay surely this time hdmi works right
Or wait
try doing the
the nvidia thing
control panel?
this one
nah it doesn't work
oh
the latest is 472.12 and in my pc it has some 321 version installed
Yeah thats really outdated
and if I try to fix this problem of driver it doesn't work
but it worked earlier
Yeah this is really confusing
brother see
rn old version of driver is installed
and earlier also the old version was installed
my point is the resolution thing doesn't have to do with the driver's version
Ye
i went to the control panel
nvidia
But to be able to fix custom resolution you need to use hdmi
lemme try it again
Your case is a little different
hdmi works
it works
Ive seen reddits of same problem but they dont say anything about old specs
okay does valorant show any changes
what about nvidia control panel
i don't see the desktop icons
control panel is same
Doesnt show anything?
its lagging
it doesn't open
lemme restart
Possibly not showing desktop icons cuz its in extended mode or smth
done
it shows
everything
with hdmi
Alright go to Change resolution and take an ss
nvidia?
or desktop
Yeah
tf it shows 75 hz
this one
it doesn't support 75 hz
your monitor model goes up to 100hz i think
bro tf
its not gone
doesn't show the resolution
BRO
What the hell
NOW ITS BACK
wtf
it shows black screen
Fir 1-2 sec
oh maybe you changed something and it reverted
should I start valo
Could try
starting
look
AYO
i didn't know about that
let's go
thank you brother
but whys it showing 75 hz
its no longer custom?
no i thanked you about that hz
oh
Man i thought it was fixed
šš
Is your val launched
if I used 1920x1080 with hdmi it showed 60 hz
it said your game requires re-start
Oh okay
let me know once its relaunched
.
yeah
yeah what the
hdmi supposed to be 100hz
thats ur monitors highest refresh rate
if I use hdmi it shows 75 hz
if I use vga it shows 60 hz
but now I don't care about that I jus want my game to work
on 1920x1080?
oh okay
yeah
but still if we can fix that it could help me get some more fps
I think if we overclock it then we might get 100hz
I think going to 100hz doesnt make fps higher
just looks smoother
This is correct right?
what
what happened
now it starts
BRO WTF IS WRONG WITH MY PC
yo your computer is playing tricks on us
bro I don't get it
LMAO
what the sigma
yeah
Lol
3rd time restarting
omdays
should I try it with vga
I think vga would show custom like before
should I try it?
i restarted 3 times
Well i guess you could
I think my monitor is over clicked or something
Had no idea you could overclock a monitor lol
I've seen videos
it shows play
valo is launched
with vga
play?
hdmi sucks ig
in riot client
Oh
hdmi is advanced than vga
and dp is more advanced than hdmi
for my pc it's opposite
i3 3220
well i guess youre stuck with 60hz
š
better than nothing
if i lower the resolution it gives 75 hz
oh
so I play in 4:3
i get around 80-110 fps
im plat 3
ohh 4:3 is stretched
i also play 4:3
this world has some beef with me
your computer
not world lolol
š
Wait how old are you
im teen
ah
1ļøā£5ļøā£
šš
do you work?
100% get your parents to at least get you a newer pc
Yes i do
they said I could just get a new cpu
and that too
Ryzen 3
š
im from India
im not that rich
whats the point of getting new specs when you can get new pc
doesnt have to be expensive
They might understand
how much would it be
my dad could buy me a new pc but my mom doesn't allow
there are pcs that could match your parents budget
what
I think your dad would just buy it
what can your mom do haha
like she said my dad to not get me a pc
Did your dad agree with her or smth
he just agrees in front of her
but he would get me a new pc
my birthday is on 9
i may get it
well you need to tell them that getting a new computer is more worth it
in the long run
my mom thinks I'm going to di3 if I play too much games
Since you said they could get you a new cpu
lol tell her that most people who play games become rich
its india
gaming isn't considered as a job
here
Yeah alot of countries also considers that
Anyways does it still show custom
my pc is lagging
valorant doesn't open now
š
this pop up everytime I start my game
but the game works
hm...
ONY
ONG
fixed
no more custom?
no more custom
LETS GOOOOOO
LETS GOOOOO
YOO
