It sounds like your system may be struggling with resource allocation when VALORANT is running. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve this issue: 1. Update Drivers: Ensure your graphics drivers and Windows OS are up-to-date. 2. In-Game Settings: Lower your in-game settings such as resolution and graphical quality. 3. Background Apps: Close unnecessary applications running in the background to free up system resources. 4. Graphics Settings: Set VALORANT to run in "Windowed Borderless" mode. This can sometimes alleviate alt-tabbing issues. 5. Power Settings: Set your PC to "High Performance" mode via the Power Options in Control Panel. If none of these steps help, you can check for further solutions or submit a ticket through the official Riot Games support page linked here: https://support-valorant.riotgames.com/hc/en-us
