A Valorant player recently found themselves banned from their favourite game for cheating, despite not having any history of such behaviour in-game. Turns out, the ban wasn’t tied to them, but the second-hand hardware they’d procured.
What Happened?
Gebrauchte CPU erlaubt kein Valorant

Here’s the story: German Redditor After-Cartoonist-196 says that they recently picked up a used AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D from its original owner. There wasn’t anything wrong with the CPU, and it worked as a processor of its calibre should.
After-Cartoonist-196 only something was amok when they booted up Valorant and found themselves hit with an instant ban when they logged on. This was odd, as they had been able to play the game with their previous CPU.
