Update ur windows. Set graphics to lowest. Check for temps. Reinstall graphics driver/update graphics drivers.

yea like it still can handle 200 but sometimes it drops to 100 for a second or two

Might just be packet loss
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
alright let me try
jidat
jidatβ€’3mo ago
Check for packet loss and Network RTT jitter in game
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
its 5ms usually i think its not internet i been using the same wifi too
jidat
jidatβ€’3mo ago
Ur ping doesn't equate to the RTT jitter
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
ah okokk
jidat
jidatβ€’3mo ago
And packet loss too if its just for a second
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
how do i know if the network jitter is unusual?
jidat
jidatβ€’3mo ago
Switch it to graph See if its unstable

When it lags look at the packet loss and jitter Even tho jitter shouldn't rly cause fps drops
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
alr alr ill test that first then and ill get back to you thanks for the follow up though appreciate it alot ill be back packet went to 4% fps stayed stable when fps drops to 150 packet loss stayed 0% jitter stayed around 0.2-1ms

try this
Open settings by Pressing Win + i

> Search for "random hardware access"

Turn it on

Go to network settings

Select your wifi \ ethernet Properties

Set it to private

Turn off metered connection

Set random hardware access in that to change daily .

you can also try this :
open command prompt as administrator and type these commands in order.

alright let me get in a game i dont see a difference it still drops to 115 sometimes when round starts in the middle of the game or mid fight i tried optimizing my pc a lot up to date graphics driver low graphics 40-55 temp for gpu could it be because of a random program that was installed hiddenly or corrupted temp files?

jidatβ€’3mo ago
Maybe

after a graphic driver update did it start
jidat
jidatβ€’3mo ago
Reinstall ur graphics drivers Wipe them using ddu in safe mode Then install manually
whyubaldd
whyubalddβ€’3mo ago

poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
i might try to install the driver that was in december or january tomorrow ngl oh no no its when the round is still in progress
Talonted Gamer
Talonted Gamerβ€’3mo ago
i think its due to its auto updating driver
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
i know it drops when new round starts but this is during i was playing
Talonted Gamer
Talonted Gamerβ€’3mo ago
might be drive or ram
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
i dont see it automatically update for me though it just have the icon to let me know actually might be true
Talonted Gamer
Talonted Gamerβ€’3mo ago
whats space on c drive
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago

Talonted Gamer
Talonted Gamerβ€’3mo ago
hmm maybe ram
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
i asked a friend to help me monitor as well it was consuming lots it might be nvidia container as well it sometimes uses like 50mb yea hmm how do i fix a ram problem
Talonted Gamer
Talonted Gamerβ€’3mo ago
Close other apps while playing Any ram optimizer
poog
poogβ€’3mo ago
