How to make Valorant lag less
Best answer

First thing's first, check your internet connection. A wired connection beats Wi-Fi for stability any day. Then, dive into the game settings. Lower those graphic settings to reduce strain on your PC, and make sure your display resolution matches your monitor's native resolution. Don't forget to close any background apps hogging resources or the internet. Also, updating your graphics card drivers can work wonders, since outdated drivers are often culprits of lag.

Lowering your in-game graphical settings was a game changer for me! Also, I turned off 'Limit FPS' in the video settings, which made everything a lot smoother. Just make sure your cooling system can handle it, or your PC might turn into a mini stove.

Make sure your Valorant is the only thing using your internet. Streaming, downloads, or even someone else gaming on the same network can cause lag. It's like trying to water a garden with a fire hose while someone's trying to fill a teacup at the same time; something's gonna miss out.

Honestly, just buy a better PC. Valorant isn't demanding, so if you're lagging, it might be time for an upgrade.
