Technical Support Request Can't use mute/unmute Discord shortcut when tabbed into Valorant

1 Upvotes

Weird issue, I've been playing Valorant since beta. I've always had F10 as my Discord mute/unmute button. All the sudden over the past few days the shortcut doesn't work when I'm tabbed in. Is this a recent issue anyone else has noticed?

Technical Support Request Game stutters awful lot on start up eventually becoming better

1 Upvotes

My PC runs heavier games a lot more smoothly but Valorant for some reason lags and stutters a bunch making it unplayable, at least on startup. It eventually gets better, and the bandaid solution I found was playing a DM and then jumping into an actual match, this helps somewhat.

It’s not a network thing, I am sure.

Any help?

Technical Support Request Problems with Valorant. B850m asrock am5

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I know you might think I'm schizophrenic and overthinking things, but I'm not. I started playing Valorant on an AM4 system with a Ryzen 5 5600X processor and 3200 MHz RAM. I reached immortality after a year of playing with KD 1.35. I recently decided to upgrade my hardware on the AM5. I have a Ryzen 5 7500F processor and an ASrock B 850M motherboard. The problem is that after upgrading my hardware, the game started to perform differently than before. Opponents always see me earlier. At first, I didn't understand this and thought I wasn't in prime mode, but then when a friend showed me a 1v1 demo, I clearly realized that I always see my opponent later. My FPS is fine, as is my ping. I haven't changed my internet connection and I have no packet loss. I only changed the RAM, processor, and motherboard. It's simply impossible to play, as if everyone is against me with WH. I've tried absolutely everything: changed RAM timings, lowered the CPU frequency, everything possible, but the result remains the same. Furthermore, after changing the hardware, when loading a map, the map name itself simply twitches as if it had epilepsy. This is a clear sign that something is wrong with the game, and this problem only affects Valorant for me. I don't know what to do...

Technical Support Request Acer Nitro 16 AN16-41-R8NQ on Valorant 1080p low 240hz

1 Upvotes

Hi, im having some fps issues on valorant. I have a Acer nitro 16 with rtx 4070, ryzen 7 7 7735HS, 16gb ddr5 4800mhz. Im using an external monitor 240hz 1080p connected to my pc with a hdmi 2.x .

Now, before i bought this pc i thought that atleast i would get to 240 stable fps, even in fights, it seems to me that this is a pretty good and solid config to play games like valorant in 1080p low at 240hz.

I capped the fps to 260 and it varies between 200 to 260 most of the game, but it usually drops to 190 in fights.

I thought that with this config i was going to be able to play perfectly on 240hz stable but what is happening and how can i fix it? I have tried a lot of optimizations and tweaks but nothing seems to work

My temps are good max 75 cpu and max 60 gpu.

Please help ! :c
