microphone delay

The in-game microphone sometimes detects it late. The messages I write to the chat are delayed. Does anyone know the solution to this problem?

Microphone delays and chat lag in VALORANT are often related to network issues or hardware performance. Here are a few steps to troubleshoot and possibly resolve the issue: 1. Check Network Connection: Ensure you're on a stable and fast internet connection. Ethernet is preferable over Wi-Fi. 2. Optimize Background Applications: Close unnecessary applications and background processes that might be using significant network or CPU resources. 3. Update Audio Drivers: Ensure your microphone and sound drivers are up to date. You can find updates on the manufacturer's website. 4. Disable Exclusive Mode: Go to Control Panel > Sound > Recording tab > Select your microphone > Properties > Advanced tab. Uncheck "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device." 5. Adjust In-Game Settings: Lower the in-game voice settings and ensure the input/output device selected is correct. 6. Firewall and Antivirus: Make sure VALORANT is allowed through your firewall and antivirus software, as they might be causing delays. 7. Reinstall VALORANT: If none of the above steps work, consider reinstalling VALORANT and Riot Vanguard. If the issue persists, check the Riot Games support site for more detailed troubleshooting steps.
