Camera shifts during gameplay cause frame drops.
Camera shifts during gameplay cause frame drops.
good day , good evening here is my issue: when i'm in some games and decide to move the camera i get a delay between my action and the result. this isnt like input lag it happens strictly when in games. my cpu and GPU arent even near 100% when this happens the only thing that i have as an info is that for some reason in valorant when this bug happens my CPU latency shoots up to 240ms which causes the "lag" i'm guessing. i'm guessing i've got a bottleneck somewhere but i've trouble figuring out where the problem come from? does anyone have an idea ? my wild guess is that it comes from the ram but if i'm posting here it's because i'm not sure. thanks in advance for all your help. My specs are: Microsoft Windows 11 Professional (x64) Build 22623.1180 GIGABYTE B450 AORUS PRO-CF bios : F61c date : 05/10/2021 AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 32 GO (4 x 8 GO) DDR4 DRAM 2 666 MHz C16 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 ( KFA2 GeForce RTX 2070 EX (1-Click OC) v2, 8 Go) Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 500GB boot drive Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 500GB storage drive (different drive) TOSHIBA DT01ACA100 2nd storage drive Cooler Master V1000, 1000W NB : sorry for the English which may contain some errors
I concur with the solution discussed here. Yet, I suspect you're not interested in purchasing a new CPU. So, consider these steps that might ease the problem (though they won't fully resolve it). Added Tip: Make sure your BIOS is up to date. I can point you to the relevant information, but I’m struggling to confirm your exact motherboard model. fTPM is required for Windows 11, and AMD BIOS has faced ongoing concerns about stuttering and delays. It’s likely that improving your BIOS won’t significantly help. #2: Install the newest chipset drivers. #3: If the previous suggestions don’t work, try turning off low-latency settings in the Nvidia drivers and/or adjusting game mode/hardware acceleration in Windows 11. #4: Shut down all unnecessary applications (Discord, OBS, OneDrive, etc.). Turn off every overlay you can. This might assist since the CPU is probably operating at full capacity and clearing cycles could be beneficial. #5: Enable whitelisting for Valorant in your antivirus software (and if you’re using an alternative to Windows Security, switch to Windows Security and check if it helps).
You're correct about the suggestion "get a new CPU" when it's actually true—it doesn't sound like a confident nod but still points toward improvement. The rest of your response helped boost my performance after completing all those steps. I'll need to discuss this with other games too, since I'm pretty sure I could run fine on a brand-new setup. How likely do you think this might connect to something else? I've been thinking about upgrading to a new generation of AMD CPUs and GPUs, but it would still be useful to see if parts of this could help friends.
Here are some alternative ways to phrase your thoughts:
- It seems cooling might be an issue. Did you relocate the PC or perhaps the heatsink came loose on the CPU? Could the cooler be clogged with cat hair or other debris?
- The RAM settings could significantly influence performance. Was there a power interruption, or did you enable XMP settings that are now reverting to default?
- If you installed any specific software recently, it might be causing the problem. Check if the issue started after that installation.
- If you're unsure, consider testing with a single 4-pack of RAM or try overclocking the existing RAM to see if performance improves.
