Building a custom PC capable of delivering 300+ FPS in Valorant requires a focus on high performance and low latency. Here’s a tailored build guide:
1. Processor (CPU)
For 1080P you are more CPU bound. Choosing a CPU like the 7700X/ 7900X / 7800X3D or the mighty 9800X3D.
2. Graphics Card (GPU)
In 1440P to 4K your graphics card is the one that is doing the heavy lifting. For 1440P I recommend going Nvidia RTX 4070super and above or AMD RX7800XT and above. If you are not sure about if you should choose Nvidia or AMD GPU check out here.

3. Monitor
Make sure you get a monitor that can handle a high refresh rate like a 120Hz – 360hz monitor.
4. Monitor
240Hz or 360Hz refresh rate with low response time (e.g. ASUS ROG Swift 360Hz).
Optimization Tips
Disable background applications for minimal resource use.
Overclock GPU and CPU (if experienced) for an extra FPS boost.
Use competitive graphics settings in-game (lower textures, shadows, and effects).
This build ensures peak performance while remaining focused on cost-effectiveness for achieving 300+ FPS consistently in Valorant.
