Valorant slows down my whole pc after launching into a game

Val will lag my entire pc after using it, and it is only this game, for reference, I have a 7900XTX with a 7800X3D. I have tested it out with other games that also require lots of resources, COD runs great, BF2042 just as good, Minecraft with demanding shaders as well, and even Rocket league (albeit a smaller game) is there any fix for this or am I fucked?

I should note that it's only whenever I get into a game, otherwise it's fine, I can be in the menu, the store, looking at the characters, etc. but even if I go into a custom or the shooting range, it messes up my whole system

i have a similar issue when i open valorant, my game starts to studder after 1-5 mins opening, also my pc studders screen freezes and mouse stops sometimes, and my wifi goes in and out, this only happens on valorant any other game is fine, it doesnt studdder when i restart my pc. I have tried using ddu, and restarted/reset my pc, also updated my bios, anyone know how to fix it?
