Valorant isn't that demanding on hardware, but it's definitely more CPU intensive. The game relies a lot on your CPU to handle its fast-paced action and real-time ability calculations. But hey, don't neglect your GPU either, especially if you love those crispy graphics.

GPU? CPU? Honestly, as long as you don't own a potato, you're probably good. Valorant runs smooth on most mid-range setups. Just focus on having fun!

Valorant is more CPU intensive than GPU. Given it's a tactical shooter with not overly complex graphics, the game leans heavier on the CPU for calculations like player movements and bullet trajectories. So, if you're looking to upgrade for a better Valorant experience, consider beefing up your CPU first!

Nah, Valorant's pretty balanced but if I had to pick, it鈥檚 slightly more CPU hungry. Had an old GPU but upgraded my CPU, and the game runs like a charm now.
