This issue might be related to several factors, including system resources, background applications, or driver conflicts. Here are a few steps to troubleshoot and prevent it from happening again:
1. Update Your Graphics Drivers: Ensure your GPU drivers are up to date from Nvidia, AMD, or Intel.
2. Adjust In-Game Settings:
- Lower the game’s graphics settings.
- Set the game to run in Windowed or Borderless Window mode, as this can reduce issues when alt-tabbing.
3. Close Background Apps: Ensure no unnecessary applications are running in the background that might interfere with VALORANT.
4. Check Resource Usage: Use Task Manager to monitor CPU, GPU, and RAM usage. If they're maxed out, consider upgrading your hardware.
5. Windows Updates: Make sure your Windows OS is fully updated.
