Honestly, depends on what you mean by 'demanding.' If we're talking specs, then yeah, Valorant asks for a bit more. But if you mean which game requires more skill, that's a whole different can of worms!

In my experience, yeah, Valorant hits the PC harder. My setup runs CS:GO like butter on max settings but struggles a bit with Valorant. Seems like you need a beefier PC for Valorant to enjoy those crisp graphics without framerate drops.

Absolutely, Valorant is generally more demanding than CS:GO in terms of system requirements. Valorant's more modern graphics and engine tech mean it requires a bit more from your PC to run smoothly, especially at higher settings. That said, both games are pretty well-optimized, so it's not like you need a supercomputer for either. Just something to keep in mind if you're balancing on the edge of minimum specs.

CS:GO is easier on your PC, period. Valorant's newer, so of course it's gonna ask for more.
