These are my PC specs : RX470 8GB,I54460 ,8GB RAM,Win10,SSD. I've been experiencing more freezing in league that isn't a huge graphical game than the latest cod game (MW),how is this possible? these tiny seconds of freezing cost me games at times ,because they happen randomly and with no warning ,just sudden.What i'm i to do about this? going to the support? ,they'd just feed some bs without being of any help .

Things that causes fps drops:

Bad internet connection
High CPU/GPU and Memory usages

You can check all of those from the control panel and see for yourself if there is some problem.

Tips:

Close the client during games. You can close the client automatically from the settings.
Don't open anything but the game. That means close your chrome browser.
Make sure that you have enough space on your local drive. Clear some catches and delete some files. Delete your LoL logs files.

i have the same problem, and i have around 20% cpu and 30% memory usage, its a problem on your guys end

Maybe, you have random spikes of usages that are causing the problem. The problems of random high cpu usages are more prevalent in windows 10

lmao I guess having 1Gbps internet and a ryzen 7 with 32 GB of ram isn't good enough to run league.

This problem can occur due to many an unexpected problems and it's not just about having the best specs.

Correct. It's about Riot. Lol.

Exactly

OOOOOR it can be on riot's end. And they just will never admit it.

You want to tell me in a game 6 people can DC at the same time because of internet/hardware issues? And there was no (!) in the client, nothing. Same day, at least 1-2 people in my 5 man group were getting DC after every game. (not the same people every game)

Still there was no (!).

The client has been in shambles for ages now. And the only thing we heard was meddler himself say it is "unacceptable client performance". But nothing since. No fixes.

And you still don't even include the possibility that riot's servers are not being maintained properly... Or that their game code has junk in it that can cause issues...

Oh fuck off he was talking about an fps drop issue

SaezioFeb 11, 20202 votes

No? OP was talking about FREEZES. Not fps drops. FPS drops can be going from 200fps to 60fps, which can indeed hinder you in some situations but it's not the same as your screen FREEZING. Freezes means your screen FREEZES and nothing changes for a very short time. Even the sound bugs at those points some times.

There were times when such freezes were extremely common for a lot of people and may times witnessed at specific timings. (either clock timing, or sometimes at first death/ first teamfight/first time using a certain skill etc)
