Ok this is not good, it's constantly writing to the drive, meaning if it sits on the SSD for days and days, just writing - that is technically slowly killing the SSD/M.2 drive.

Edit:
The issue is now fixed!

Thank you, Riot! :)

This might be related to a an issue we just pushed out a fix for. Please restart to download the latest version. Make sure the RiotClientServices.exe process is dead prior to starting the game back up again, I think it may have been getting stuck for a few people. Let us know if you still run into this after updating to the latest version.

I still have this problem.

I cant really help you unless you are a bit more specific :X.

What problems are you seeing? High CPU usage? Is it coming from the RiotClientServices.exe or VALORANT process? Are you seeing it even after you close the game? Is RiotClientServices.exe filling up the disk?

If you are seeing high CPU usage from RiotClientServices.exe I might be able to help. I will probably need your logs to troubleshoot though.

I have cleared the disk and I closed the RiotServices.exe. The update helped for my CPU usage it's at a 30-45% (I was experiencing 10-20%). Although I have low GPU usage and it may be affecting my FPS (30%). I have tried putting it on high priority but it makes my FPS even worse. I have also seen way lower-end specs performing way better than my specs and I'm not the only one. I have looked at the min specs for 144 fps and people with better specs are getting lower FPS? And comparing these specs to mine (GTX 1060 3GB i7 7700 16RAM And ~160 FPS) I should be getting far better FPS than 160. Also, I hope you have acknowledged the horrible optimisation for AMD processors, where people are getting 100-120 FPS With High-End CPUs. ((Proof, Proof 2, Proof 3...) I hope these problems are resolved for the full release.

Edit: There is also FPS drops with certain abilities like the smokes, the blaze, sage's wall etc.

Ah I see, that sounds like its out of my area of expertise unfortunately. It sounds like your issue is you are getting less FPS in game than you would expect. I believe you probably want to reach out to someone on the VALORANT game team (like RiotNaCl for example). I am sorry I am not of much use in this situation.

I am on the RiotClientServices.exe team which works on things like patching for example. This particular reddit post was about issues with RiotClientServices.exe.
