Hey all

I upgrade my pc to 7800x3d and 9070 xt and game is working flawlessly

500 fps locked. when unlocked it hits max 1100 avg 700 and 1% is about 550

But here is a problem

When i am in lobby waiting for start a game my fps unlock by itself causing gpu to hit 374w all the time and also cause my hotspot to hit 83c which is bad since even furmark does not hit that much when i burn gpu

Same thing is happening when i alt tab and scroll a web

My fps are locked in settings and i put everything on 60 fps and only 500 when i am actually in game

When game starts my fps is then locked to 500 and temps are max 55c

Not even rivatuner is helping

Also i tried DLSS 5 with optiscaler and not even then i managed to get to 83c gpu hotspot

Only happening in valorant all other games are okey

TLDR: When i play a valorant my usage and temps are lower but when i am alt tabed out of game gpu is buring

I usually run 19-23 ping on Georgia servers my main server, about 4-5 days ago after I finished a comp my ping on all servers instantly jumped, my best ping then was in Texas servers and it was averaging 47-54 with the rest being high 70-90. Just now I finished another comp and Texas is at 86-93 while the rest are 120+. Are the servers broken or something or am I missing something? Please if anyone has the solution to this lmk!

Hey, I don’t usually come on here but I have no idea what to do anymore. I recently bought a new PC back in February and had my fps drop from 200 to 0 for a split second causing micro stuttering. The techs I was going to basically gave up on me. And said they can’t help me. My specs are:

5070 Ti
B850 Aorus elite wifi7 ice
32 gb ddr5 ram
AMD ryzen 5 9600x

I’ve tried basically everything and didn’t have this issue with my last build. I’ve updated my drivers and did a windows reinstall and other things. I would like to clarify I use wifi but I don’t have packet loss and i’ve done internet tests.

If someone could help me out or give tips that would be great😅

Description of Original Problem:

VALORANT is heavily CPU-bound and stuck at only 100–140 FPS on a 5700X3D + 7800 XT system.

• CPU (Game) Time sits around 7.0 ms (limiting FPS)
• GPU utilization only ~60% and very low power draw (~75-85W)
• CPU Wait GPU Time = 0.0 ms
• Overall CPU utilization only ~64% (not fully saturated)
• I have previously hit ~260 FPS with 4.2 ms Game Time, so the hardware is capable of more.

Troubleshooting:

• All VALORANT settings on Low, Multithreaded Rendering ON, no FPS limit, VSync off, FSR off
• AMD Adrenalin: Radeon Chill, Enhanced Sync, and frame limiting all disabled
• Fixed RAM from default 2133 MHz to proper 3600 MHz via DOCP/XMP
• Confirmed dual-channel RAM
• CPU temps ~60°C, clocks ~4.0–4.05 GHz
• GPU temps normal
• Switched Windows power plan to High Performance
• Only overlay running is Medal (I want to keep it)
• Closed as many other background programs as possible

Still stuck with high CPU Game Time and low FPS.

Hello, idk how to open a ticket. I'm boomer. But when I play cypher it's been doing this weird thing recently for when I buy a trip or cage, when I click once it buys both of them instead of just one. Pls fix. I dont wanna buy 2 trips. I just wanna buy bandit + trip first round

Hi guys,

I’ve been experiencing what seems to be a new bug with the buy menu. I first noticed it in the new Gauntlet mode.

When I click on an ability or gun that I want to purchase, the first click doesn’t actually buy the item, although I still hear the purchase sound cue. Only the second click (or subsequent clicks) actually allows me to purchase it.

I’ve also experienced the same issue in TDM when selecting guns. I don’t remember the buy menu behaving like this a few days ago.

The second, and more problematic, part of the bug happens in Unrated and Competitive.

Sometimes, clicking once will cause the game to buy two of the same item instead of one. For example:

• Buying 2 cages with 1 click
• Buying 2 Headhunter bullets with 1 click

When I try to refund the purchase, both items are refunded as well.

The only way I’ve found to temporarily fix it is to spam the buy/refund buttons a few times until it starts buying one item at a time again. However, the issue comes back whenever I close and reopen the buy menu.

Has anyone else been experiencing this recently? Is there a known fix or workaround?

I’ve tried restarting the game, but the issue seems to come back. I also tried using my friends computer and it still happens. Seem like its link to the account or something.

Thanks!
