VALORANT hella glitchy and no way to fix it

istg bro wtf is wrong with valorant, I have a gtx 1650 ti graphics card with an i5 processor and 8gb ram but for some reason valorant just doesnt run on my laptop, it takes so long to load (around 20 mins) and when Im queuing in for a game it takes ages for the agent selection to pop up, not to mention that sometimes it doesnt even fucking load and I just end up getting a penalty for no fucking reason. Theres another problem in which it agan takes way too long to load and I end up missing around 1 - 3 rounds. Sometimes the game even crashes midway while loading or while Im in the middle of a game. I have run many other games such as ghost of tsushima, cyberpunk, cod ww2, dmc5, sekiro, minecraft and even other online shooters like fortnite and rocket league but none of the problems stated above occurred. The only reason I havent ended up deleting it already is cuz my friends still play it and I wanna play w them. I have tried deleting the game many times but it doesnt fix it, tried updating to windows 11 which caused even more problems, updated my drivers which fixed nothing and even installed an ssd which again did nothing, also tried reinstalling vanguard but did nothing. Please help.

Sorry to hear about the trouble you're experiencing with VALORANT. Here are some steps you can try to potentially resolve the issues: 1. Reinstall Riot Vanguard: Uninstall Riot Vanguard via the Control Panel and then restart VALORANT to reinstall it. This might help with loading issues. 2. Optimize Your System: Ensure that all your drivers are up to date, especially your GPU drivers. Check for Windows updates and install any available ones. 3. Adjust In-Game Settings: Lowering in-game graphics and advanced settings might help. VSync, anti-aliasing, and anisotropic filtering could particularly impact performance. 4. Check Background Processes: Make sure no heavy applications are running in the background. This includes browsers, streaming apps, or other games. 5. Network Issues: Ensure your network is stable. Use a wired connection if possible and close other bandwidth-heavy applications. 6. Run as Administrator: Run both the Riot Client and VALORANT as an administrator to prevent permission issues. 7. Clean Boot: Try performing a clean boot of your system to start Windows with minimal drivers and startup programs. 8. Support Ticket: If the issues persist, submit a support ticket to Riot Games for more personalized assistance: Riot Games Support.
