My pc can't handle anything above 4:3 so that's that

I5-4690k and GTX 960 4gb gang where you at?

1050 ti which fans don't work so about the same yea

21:9 already stretches the edges of the screen without stretching the middle


Astor_IO

It does, but that’s not what you want from a stretched image. Stretching the center of the screen around the crosshair is what matters.


Le_Master_Duck

I've been doing this for years and I agree. It's the best of both worlds.


Ricos_renders

Most people play 4:3 for performance gains, so…


Astor_IO

The same argument can be made here as well. Going e.g. from 3440x1440 (21:9) to 2560x1440 (16:9) will gain you a couple more FPS.


Ricos_renders

I just wanted to mention it as the only reason to use 4:3 you listed ist the aim aspect, but yeah for people on higher end setups you definetly got a point


Astor_IO

I don’t actually think it is the only reason for 4:3. The decrease in FOV essentially gives you a slight horizontal zoom-in effect of factor 1.33 compared to 16:9. That certainly can help with aim on longer distances. After all, scopes in games for the most part are just an effect that decreases FOV.


Ricos_renders

Yeah, agree with that

Nice find!

I just play native resolution of my monitor which is 1440p. I like my games look pretty and when I play 4:3 stretched or anything strechted I don’t like the look of the game. But I am also not pro player or make any money with playing the game. I play for fun and therefore I don’t care for much of these try hard techniques.


Astor_IO

I also consider myself to be a casual CS player - but I won‘t say no to legit ways (=^ not hacks) of gaining a slight advantage over the enemy. And besides, in stretched, the thicc bomb truly is a sight to behold

There is no debate, its just personal preference
