A AMD RX 7800 XT paired with a Intel Core i5-12400F lands around 287 fps in Valorant at 1080p with Ultra textures, High shadows and no upscaling. Ray tracing is left off on this pairing. These values come from the same model the interactive optimizer uses, applied to this exact hardware pair rather than a generic preset.

Your CPU is limiting FPS here
Intel Core i5-12400F is holding back your AMD RX 7800 XT at 1080p in Valorant. A faster CPU could get you closer to ~344 fps at these settings.
Estimate only — based on a 20% uplift for a moderate CPU bottleneck, not a measured benchmark.

Valorant was deliberately built to run on almost anything, which means graphics settings are rarely the story. Nearly every modern system is limited by the CPU, and frame rates in the several hundreds are normal even on modest hardware.
What actually varies between players is frame-time consistency. Background applications, browser tabs and overlays affect this game's smoothness more than any in-game slider, and a stable 240 FPS beats a spiky 400.
Covers ranked matches. The engine is deliberately lightweight, so recommendations focus on latency and frame-time stability.
