Valorant keeps randomly freezing and crashing.
For the past week, whenever I go into the inventory and switch between skins, Valorant freezes and then crashes. The same thing happens mid-game — the screen freezes and the game closes, even though my FPS stays above 500. I’m not alt-tabbing, and my system works fine with every other program.
Specs:
• AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D
• NVIDIA RTX 3070
• 32 GB RAM
• 500 GB SSD (plenty of free space)
No background apps running.

Update* When it crashed a blank white “error” textbox will appear and then disappears.
FYI: When Valorant crashed my whole system is not bugging or lagging, its working totally find, except Valorant.

as well as delete and reinstalled fresh Valorant, GPU driver
mine just randomly crash mid game or when im in my inventory section switching between skin to sminn
which gpu driver you installed ? bc nvidia reported they have some problems for some usrs in the last update
so try to roll one update back
I installed the UE5 driver one
https://www.nvidia.com/en-eu/drivers/ go here select your gpu when its show you the page with driver click show more scroll down and download one from before 🙂

@junimo
does the game tell you to generate a crash dump?
no, when it crashed a blank white error box will popped up and then disappeared
no crash report or anything
for freezing try to disable multithreaded rendring in graphics
in my case problem is 80% fixed
why tho, my system is not weak its running 500 fps
try it
its overloading threads causing freez
ue5 problem I guess
mine sometimes crashed and most of the time Valorant will just quit itself
Ill try it later
k
for ex: when i go to skins shop or inventory clicking on a skins with animation, my game will just crash
I can cheak that
first try the fix then dm me if the issue is still there
u uninstalled the driver via ddu??
yes
this is what happen when my game freezed @junimo
holy shit never saw that one before
are you able to click one of the error dialogs?
nahh
.
can you try this?
head to your graphical settings
should be the first option on the top
like when it freezes it will like time travel back to the screen 30s ago
Okay
i js queue team deathmatch, bam game freezes
Weird because your specs are PERFECTLY fine
i play on worse specs
and i get 300~ fps with no issues
this case is weird to me
did u update your drivers?
yes
to the newest one possible
game ready correct?
and then ppl tell me to download the old UE5 one and I did
yes
alr
it doesnt even happen after ue5
ur on game ready drivers
what about cpu?
it happen the start of this week
update it? yes already
its a game problem i think
many ppl have the same issues like me
ok can u try what i said and report back to me?
okk
tag me whenever youre done
will turning it off affect anything on my system?
no
gameplay i meant
it will just make the game render differently
the game itself wont look different
you might lose a little fps
still
uhh
if its an ingame issue
then

maybe its nothing on your end
okay tysm
Ill try
I’ve seen that issue before, but no solution unfortunately
not on user end
i guess its a issue with the engine
it reduced my freez about 80%
I also used process lasoo to increase my games priority and other things
