Val makes my PC keep freezing? Pls help

Hi so basically my valorant, whenever I open it, has been freezing my PC after it runs for about 2-3 minutes, and continues to freeze it after its closed. I've done a PC check, I have the right specs to run val, and nothings wrong with my PC, so I think valorant might be the problem atp. I deleted and reinstalled it and it still continued to do this. When it freezes it doesn't stay frozen, it freezes for 5-10 seconds, stops for a few, and then continues to freeze again over and over. After this happens I literally need to shut down my PC for it to stop. Does anyone know what is wrong?

ive done factory reset also lmfao ive done like everything it might be a anti cheat issue or wifi/pc problem ive done like every possible outcome or something like that reset whole pc, uninstall game and reinstall+ vanguard, update driver, driver uninstaller, update bios, update windows nothing works could either be some type of pc issue with gpu or cpu, or mb, or wifi connectivity or even the game this only happens with valorant and faceit for cs i can play league fine and other games just not cs2 faceit or valorant
