FRAMES DROP PLS HELP

šŸ” What you've already done:

šŸ”„ Full Windows reset

šŸ”» BIOS downgraded & upgraded (F34 → F33 → F35)

šŸ”§ AMD chipset and NVIDIA drivers updated or clean uninstalled

šŸ”Œ Removed AMD Performance and Gigabyte software (as suggested by Riot)

šŸ” Full reinstallation of Valorant and Vanguard

šŸŒ”ļø Monitored CPU/GPU temperatures and voltages

āš™ļø NVIDIA control panel optimized

šŸŽ® Tested multiple games:

āœ… GTA V — no lag
āœ… CS:GO — no lag
āŒ Valorant — still experiencing freezes and frame drops

šŸŽÆ Quick summary:

You have a Ryzen 9 7900X + RTX 4060 + B650 EAGLE AX build, fully clean and optimized.
Yet Valorant keeps freezing — only this game — even after:

Full system reset

Clean driver removals

BIOS updated to latest version (F35)

Complete Vanguard uninstall/reinstall

All known Windows/NVIDIA optimizations done

āš ļø Other demanding games work flawlessly, so the issue seems exclusive to Valorant.

It briefly improved after removing a faulty AMD chipset install (caused by BIOS downgrade), but the problem came back.
