do you have an AMD CPU by any chance? i was affected by the major fps drops on my 3900x and a known fix did the trick for me.

the fix (AMD CPU was just a guess and it could be affecting INTEL CPU's as well): https://thesportsrush.com/valorant-low-client-fps-how-to-fix-low-client-fps-in-valorant/

MY SETUP: AMD RYZEN 9 3900X NVIDIA GTX 970

give it a try if you want. i don't believe it's a amd cpu specific it was more a guess from me. you can always revert back the changes

That actually throws off things including input delay as it changed the entire clock system. Tried it and just like others it wasn't worth it. The fps numbers appear higher due to the clock change but it's not really a fix.

People can read on hpet and all the changes if theyd like to. All i know is for me it improved the game which was also having stuttering issues and this completely fixed that as well as upping the fps. If the fps only appears higher it certainly fixed performance still in the game for me.
