VLR users pls help

I play on a laptop with specs- i5 7th gen, NVIDIA MX230, 8GB RAM
So basically when i start playing valorant i get like 100-120 fps but after like 20 mins or so, my laptop starts overheating and my fps drops to 20-30ish and it becomes really hard to play because of the fps change that happens mid game. Any tips on how to fix this?

Play of low graphics and low res ez fps boost

I do but my laptop starts overheating........ once it goes down to 20s it doesnt go back up

i have heard that valo is a cpu intensive game and u have an old cpu also valo runs better on dual channel ram to if u can upgrade ur ram

maybe clean ur laptop open it up and clean the dust maybe that might help

Clean the internal fans and buy external ones

valo runs better on amd's cpus also it is an cpu intensive game so you might consider upgrading ur pc or laptop.

cap fps to 65 and set one resolution low of same aspect ratio. You'll be blessed.

Guess ill try this today

it happen to me as well, that's because ur cpu is overheating and can't keep up with the temperature
u should Clean the internal fans and u should playing valorant at low temperature room (use AC) or
u should use external fan and point towards your laptop (so ur laptop won't overheating)

sorry for bad grammar

Yeah i live in a desert country

Clean ur fans and get a external fan.

If you are sure it's because of overheating then you should check whether your laptop fans are running at full speed or not while gaming and also clear any dust formed on vents by blowing air ( air compressor is recommended ) and if possible apply new thermal paste.

buy a external cooling fan
