jidat•4mo ago
U can maybe try some tweaks in the windows settings etc
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago

jidat
jidat•4mo ago

I would recommend you to get 16gbs I was using a ryzen 5 and a 1060 with 8gbs and valorant was unplayable I upgraded to 32gbs recently
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
Unplayable 💀 U must have rly high standards man
Kix
Kix•4mo ago
It wouldn’t even load the game
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
Like long loading times?
Kix
Kix•4mo ago
Nah windows 11 messes with valorant
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
im facing long loadings too would take minimim 2 rounds to load in
Kix
Kix•4mo ago
Honestly upgrade your hdd to a ssd and upgrade the ram to 16gbs
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
hmm i know its the best option but not currently possible to do and il look forward into it when its the right time
Kix
Kix•4mo ago
It’s like 60$ all together
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
I have an hdd too
Kix
Kix•4mo ago
Why?
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
But it doesn't take me 2 rounds Idk
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
not the problem of money but im still in my last year of my highschool
jidat
jidat•4mo ago

jidat
jidat•4mo ago

stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
well its suprising it could run the game at 60 but drops which is natural
Kix
Kix•4mo ago
Your like 19th generations behind you are very much in need of a upgrade
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
il eventually get a new laptop next year since im going college which i think its better than upgrading
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
I am like 10 generations behind
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
what r ur specs
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
An i3 4150 Hd 4400 graphics 8 gigs of ddr3
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago

jidat
jidat•4mo ago
An hdd which is at 100% utlization most of the times So basically a failing hard drive
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago

jidat
jidat•4mo ago
Goodnight people Peace out.
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
How do u get 800 x 600 res
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
Use winxp I play true stretched
Sonic
Sonic•4mo ago
winexp has a backdoor installed, don't use it
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
Where did u get that from?
Sonic
Sonic•4mo ago
at least the version on sourceforge
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
Again, where did u get that from?
Sonic
Sonic•4mo ago
it drops a malicious cmd file i reversed it on a vm
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
Oh Factual? @jidat
jidat
jidat•4mo ago
No idea
Sonic
Sonic•4mo ago
i just checked it, the backdoor only exists in the sourceforge, github and other non-official versions. The nirsoft download is safe. as long as you download from nirsoft it's safe to use @stxrboy
Saucywan
Saucywan•4mo ago
really??
No description
Saucywan
Saucywan•4mo ago
Who would have guessed
Sonic
Sonic•4mo ago
yea
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
ok thanks ;-; so its safe on nirosoft?
Sonic
Sonic•4mo ago
oh sourceforge finally removed it i reported it like 3 times yes
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
did u monitor ur stats while playing? that's what you need for troubleshooting u dont simply say u are having fps drops, u need more info and it's suggested to have atleast 8gb of ram for u build(igpu) ur os and games on a ssd would be much better tho
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
after update my fps is between 30-40 and goes down to 20 durrin gunfights, sometimes game freeezes and loads after 2 sec too but i did not face this problem before update yeah i understand its a old computer so
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
I don't think u understand u need to monitor more than just fps
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
yeah i dont ;-; like how oh u mean by like cpu temp and usage stuff?
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
yes and even ram usage
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
my disc is always at 100% and cpu at 99, temp betwee 70 and 60
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
by disc u meant hard disk?
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
yeah hard disk its always at 100 when i open opening task manager is difficult since it would lag the whole pc 💀 might wont even load
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
get a ssd
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
do i have to install c drive in a ssd ? or jus valorant or both in the ssd
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
and vanguard sometimes scans for cheats so it's normal but ofc it wont always be scanning, if u are having issues with vanguard, reinstall vanguard
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
see if i upgrade to ssd do i need to have valorant only installed in it?
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
ur os, let's say windows yes it's better to have it on ur ssd
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
or do i have to have my c drive stuff in it too? k
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
u can, but os on ssds just much faster than hdds
stxrboy
stxrboy•4mo ago
is it possible to take ssd from my other lap and put into this one
mythea
mythea•4mo ago
yes what's ur another laptop
Raker
Raker•4mo ago

Raker•4mo ago
