TenZ's PC settings to fix FPS in Valorant

TenZ has got fast reflexes and his flicks are one of the best skills that allows him to get more kills in Valorant. However, this is only possible when the game runs smoothly. One can get higher FPS by upgrading their PCs, as TenZ suggested in one of his recent streams. He pointed out that the game is more CPU demanding, and players need to have a good CPU for better Valorant experience.

Further more, he also added that he upgraded his graphics card from a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti to a GeForce RTX 309, and changed his processor from an Intel Core i7-8700K to a Ryzen 9 5900X. This made his FPS increase from 200 to 500.

Nevertheless, one can also fix an FPS issue by changing the PC settings, following the steps below:

1. Right-click on the Valorant and open ‘Properties.’

7. After that, go to the Start button, and search ‘Background Apps’ to turn it off.
8. Go to Windows update and turn off the ‘Allow downloads from other PCs’, by clicking on ‘Delivery Optimization’.
9. Check if the Windows 10 operating system is updated.
