Extreme low performance by I5 -11400 UHD 730 Drivers in Valorant

[MB10_]

After installing the latest (version 30.0.100.9684) drivers, whenever I try to play Valorant the game performs insanely low and gives me a one fps - literally. Like the game is just being displayed in 1 fps and I just cannot do anything about it. 

My specs -

Intel I5 -11400

Asus Tuf B560M Plus Wifi (Bios 0820)

Windows build - 19043.1110

UHD 730 Grahphics

Corsair Vengeance 8GB Dual channel 3GHZ ram

Win 10 21H1

This same problem occurs in 20H1 version, other driver versions and other bios versions.

Edit 1: With these settings, the game doesn't instantly go to 1fps, it kind of runs smoothly, but I still do experience random frame drops and stuttering- Windows 21H1, Bios 0820, Driver version 27.20.100.9078 (this is a motherboard specific driver, from motherboards website).

Try turning off the instant replay feature!

Hello, first of all sorry for the late reply. I saw the thread that you linked and it seems to not have a solution. I was thinking of closing it, however since the one linked is for UHD 630 graphics I thought this one should be kept open since it was for UHD 730 graphics. I was very disappointed from the performance it gave because of the stutters, but in the end it was integrated graphics and it worked well for an everyday PC user. I did end up buying a 750ti GPU that has no issues. I really appreciate intel support staff for trying to figure out the issue and will be happy for answer any questions.

I'm having the same problem.

Specs:

i5 11400

uhd 730

h510m-a pro

hyper-x fury beast 8GBx2  3200mhz dual channel

win 10 21h1

Every game I play there are stutters. The gameplay looks smooth but when you move the mouse it stutters (fps goes to 1) then comesback again. Whatever actions I do at the game, it stutters. Any fix?

Tried RAMMap and turning on/off XMP.
