Pushing 200-270 fps in Valorant when I watch other benchmarks they usually get upwards of 350-400 and I am not sure what the reason is3

Lemme guess YT.

Make and model of your motherboard? BIOS version for your motherboard?

Power Supply 850W Corsair RM850
You should've looked into buying a 1KW PSU instead of an 850W unit.

Fresh windows 11 install
Where did you source the installer for your OS? Did you install the OS in offline mode? Manually installing all drivers in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator?

CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i 240 AIO
You should've gone with a larger radiatored AIO, something that was 360mm.

Yeah YT videos but even then 12900k pushing 200-250 frames when i used to get liike 300-400 frames idk what happened recently

Make and model is pro z690 a
MSI PRO Z690-A LGA 1700 ATX

Bios version
BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends International, LLC. 1.00, 9/14/2021

The installer I just used the Windows 11 USB Installation creation tool

I didnt install in offline mode nor and extyra drivers in elevated commands

CPU Cooler was a past decision wont go with water cooling in the future.
