Hello,

I am having freezing issues in League of Legends (LoL) ever since I built my new computer.
I couldn't find a solution in my country community, so I am asking for advice here.
Please excuse my awkward English.

While playing LoL, the game freezes once or twice per match. The mouse still works, but I have to open Task Manager to close the game manually and resolve the issue.

Specifications are as follows:


- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 5 Raphael 7500F (6 cores/12 threads, 3.7GHz)
- **Motherboard:** MSI PRO B650M-A WIFI (AMD B650/M-ATX)
- **RAM:** G.SKILL DDR5 PC5-48000 CL30 TRIDENT Z5 NEO RGB (16GBx2, 6000MHz)
- **Graphics Card:** MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Gaming X D6 8GB Twin Frozr 9
- **SSD:** Samsung PM9A1 M.2 NVMe 2280 (1TB TLC, with heatsink)
- **HDD:** Western Digital BLUE HDD 4TB WD40EZAX (3.5"/SATA3/5400rpm)
- **Power Supply:** Micronics Classic II Full Change 700W 80PLUS BRONZE E 230V EU ATX3.1
- **Cooling Fans:** ARCTIC P14 PWM PST ARGB (x3), PentaWave Z04E SRB ARGB (CPU Cooler)
- **Case:** ML-420 Venti White BTF (Mid-Tower)
- **Operating System:** Windows 11

Here are the methods I have tried, but they did not fix the issue:
1. Replacing the graphics card, motherboard, and RAM.
2. Updating the BIOS.
3. Updating the graphics driver to the latest version.
4. Reinstalling League of Legends.
5. Reinstalling Windows.
6. Removing and reinserting the RAM.


Here is the method that worked to resolve the issue:
1. Changing the power plan from "Balanced" to "High Performance" in the Windows Power Options.

Although this solution works, I want to understand the root cause of the issue. I would greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions.
