Fix Valorant FPS Drops, Lag Spikes & Low FPS

This tutorial will show you how to fix Valorant FPS drops, lag spikes and low FPS. You will often experience FPS drops or lag spikes if your settings are too high for your computer. Lowering your in-game graphics settings can help fix FPS drops. However, if you have a good PC then it is unlikely that this is the issue.

Additionally, you will also want to adjust your display mode and FPS limits. By having Valorant in fullscreen mode you may eliminate some FPS issues, such as low fps. Setting FPS limits for your menu and background options can help take pressure off your system when you're not playing, allowing your computer to focus on high frame rates while you're playing. If you're experiencing lag spikes then setting a limit may fix the FPS issue.

Turning off the limit FPS on battery, and limit FPS always options will ensure that you're getting the best FPS when playing on computer and laptop. If either of these options are set to on then you may experience low FPS as you're choosing to limit how high your frame rate can go.

Another option to solve Valorant stutters and FPS drops is to change your computers reduce latency and improve performance setting. Typically, having this setting enabled will result in better performance when playing Valorant, however, this isn't always the case. If this setting is already turned on then you can try disabling it to fix the FPS drop issue.

If you have an NVIDIA graphics card then you can also fix FPS drops by adjusting your NVIDIA control panel settings. If you have the wrong settings then you may be experiencing low FPS or stutters as a result. Be sure to set max frame rate to off, and texture filtering quality to high performance.

Turning off hardware acceleration on Discord and Google Chrome may also help improve FPS in Valorant. This won't make any changes if you don't play Valorant with these applications open.

Another option to fix FPS issues and lag spikes is to close applications that you aren't using. These applications may be using resources, taking the focus away from Valorant. Be sure not to close any application that you're unfamiliar with to prevent causing any issues.

Additionally, updating your graphics card drivers can help solve any issues. If Valorant started lagging after an update then this is a possible solution. People with an NVIDIA graphics card can download game ready drivers using the NVIDIA GeForce Experience application.

Bro to think that discord of all things is what was breaking my game is unbelievable. My game was literally unplayable, going from 140 - 160 down to 12 was beyond annoying. Thank you so much for this.

[spenny]

Thank you so much for this I couldn't play ranked for a while because of how laggy it is and now its smoother than it's ever been before!

[Ahmadawss]

THANK YOU! i was having 50 fps when i usually have 200+ fps on valorant. i tried all the steps in your video and im back to 200+ and smooth gameplay.

I don't usually comment on videos but I tried like 5 other videos and nothing. This the only one that mentioned Discord and it worked. Much love <3

Hey! If you use a mouse with a very high polling rate that can also be the issue, try lowering your polling rate to 500-250 in your mouse's provided software to see if that fixes your issue. I personally was having this issue and then after changing the polling rate it started working fine

[i__soumyodipchoudhury]

I cannot explain u how much it helped me.And no i am not a bot it's legit reaction..thank you now I can finally play and tap heads instead of teleporting into mid suddenly.

[Asenaraven]

I used to consistently get 120 - 140fps on valorant, then it suddenly only peaked at 70 and dipped to 25 - 30 fps very very often... Tried *everything* in this video out, and it still persists... I think I'll just uninstall it lmao

[mxxgxn____]

I just disabled gforce overlay, limit fps in menu and disabled background running of chorme.

Berfore doing this i was getting 70 fps when enemies where not infront of me and 10-30 fps when enemies were infront of me.
After doing this I am getting 100 fps when I am not infront of enemy and 60 fps when I am infront of enemy.

It really help a lot.

[JoyFawley]
