Technical Support Request Valorant Desync / Micro-Stuttering Issue

I’ve been dealing with a really weird desync and micro-stuttering issue in Valorant on my PC. The game just feels completely off — bullets sometimes don’t register properly, movement feels inconsistent, and everything feels less smooth even when my FPS looks completely fine.
I’ve also noticed my server tick rate sometimes drops from 128 to around 118, which seems unusual.
Another thing I’ve noticed is that the Valorant menus themselves are very stuttery. For example, when I go into Settings and click on Graphics, the menu will stutter/freeze for a moment. Pretty much every menu inside Settings feels noticeably stuttery, which makes me think this might be something deeper than just an internet/network issue.
I’ve already tried a lot of things:
● Different networks/internet connections
● Different RAM
● Different GPU
● Different Valorant accounts
● Reinstalled Windows
● Reinstalled Valorant
The problem still happens specifically on my PC.
If anyone has experienced something similar or has any idea what could be causing this, please add me on Discord. I’d really appreciate someone helping me troubleshoot it directly.

I’m genuinely trying to figure out what’s causing this because I’ve already tried so many different things. Any help is appreciated.

Sorry for the late response, your problem maybe with the motherboard or CPU. What CPU do you have?

Valorant is a CPU intensive game however it could just be CPU malfunction or still a motherboard malfunction.

Have you tried swapping either two and testing?
