Valorant freezing on start-up + huge RAM sink
🔧Technical Issue🖥️Desktop Issue
Solved
SolvedI want to make it very clear, I've tried doing Riviere's solution. I disabled every overlay I know--even closed Overwolf in its entirety. Valorant does not get past the loading screen, and starts to eat up a lot of my memory in the process. *This is just now happening today, both before and after completely reinstalling graphics drivers with DDU.
Prior to this message, Valorant would also freeze my entire computer down to the mouse cursor for an entire 5 minutes, before giving back full control and showing a frozen window of Valorant that couldn't be interacted with.
*
If it helps, these are my specs, though I highly doubt they're the root of the problem:
I'm not quite sure what to do to fix this.

If it helps, these are my specs, though I highly doubt they're the root of the problem:
AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB VRAM (newest drivers, freshly reinstalled to make sure)
Intel Core i5-13400f
16GB Memory (73% default usage/ 85% usage w/ Valorant open.)
I'm not quite sure what to do to fix this.
