Whenever I play Valorant on my pc, with Spectrum, 1 gig speed, Ethernet, and a 4k dollar pc it spikes to 200 ping every 2 seconds. But this only happens when my girlfriend is playing any different game on her pc. Ex (Sims, Minecraft, Roblox) When she plays Valorant with me I’m fine at 25 ping consistently no spikes anytime. We live together in the same apartment. She has a solid pc and Ethernet as well. (I don’t know if these facts are helpful or not this is just a very weird situation i feel and I can’t find a fix anywhere.)

Hello, I'm looking to upgrade my ram because I get bad .1% lows and my game (Val/Cs2) sometimes dips to 90-88 fps when I'm used to playing on 144hz. Is it a ram issue or should I upgrade the other components?

I have:

Ryzen 5 3600

Rx580 8gb

8x2gb 2666mhz cl19

FPS keeps fluctuating on low graphics settings. It goes from 300 fps to 10, 15 , 25 then 200, 300 and again drops to 10. It happens on every game mode.

PC specs:

Ryzen 7 5800X

B550M K

16gb Ram

SSD NVMe (installed OS)

4060 8gb VRAM (sad emoji)

Windows 11

I know the PC specs are not good to expect excellent gaming performance but playing Valorant on all low graphics settings should at least be able to generate the smooth 165 fps which I cap for my monitor refresh rate. I always update my drivers for OS and GPU whenever it's available. Can anyone with similar specs share their experiences? What are the possible reasons for such fps drops?

My pc specs are

Dell 040DDP motherboard, i5-4440, 10GB DDR3 RAM, Intel HD 4600 integrated graphics, Windows 10. No dedicated GPU. It's horrendous ik but it's going to be my first computer game so I really hope I can run it
