Uninstall Intel Graphic Drivers > Install driver from Intel page > Right click on Desktop > Open Intel Control Panel > Screen/Monitor option > Check: Scale full screen (and then check small box saying "Override application options")

It's problem appearing mostly on laptops because manufacturers uses their own modified Intel drivers that are meant to save battery

How to play 4:3 with or without black bars

1. Open your nVidia Control Panel and go to "Adjust desktop size and position" (if you have an AMD video card, search for "GPU scaling", "Screen scaling" or something along the lines). Now change the radio button to "Full-Screen". Also tick "Override the scaling mode set by games and programs" and Apply.
   
   
2. Open this file: [steaminstallationfolder]\Steam\userdata\[userid]\730\local\cfg\video.txt
   
   Search for the following line:
   

   "setting.aspectratiomode" "1" // 0 = 4:3, 1 = 16:9, 2 = 16:10

   Select "0" if you have a 16:9 screen and want the 4:3 aspect ratio to stretch without black bars.
   
   Side note: If you do want black bars, set it to the native aspect ratio of your monitor, most likely that's "1" (16:9).
   
   Now change the resolution (is has to be one that CS:GO is supporting):
   

   "setting.fullscreen" "1" // must be set to fullscreen
   "setting.defaultres" "1280" // this is the width
   "setting.defaultresheight" "960" // this is the height (d'uh)

   Many select a height of 1024 instead of the mathematically correct 960 pixels in 4:3, which respresents the highest possible resolution for 4:3 in-game. It stretches the image even further horizontally when in full-screen mode. Some pros, like FalleN, however prefer a correct 4:3 aspect ratio and therefore have selected a height of "960".

You are done.

Just tried all this, and same, nothing happen, this intel its so ♥♥♥♥ man worst laptop ever a lot of issues

what's your laptop's native screen resolution? if its 1366x768 try lowering it to 1360x768 then go to intel graphics settings and choose scale fullscreen. that should get rid of the blackbars whilst on 4:3 resolution ingame.

For those of you who still have black bars but want it stretched and also have a NVIDIA card, heres how to fix it. This ALSO WORKS with WIN 10

First open up the NVIDIA control panel.

Next go to the "Adjust desktop size and position" tab

You will see 3 scaling modes. Make sure you chose Full-Screen.

After you also want to tick this. "Override the scaling mode set by games and programs"

That should be it :) Have fun playing CS:GO stretched!

For nvidia fix go in to the nvidia control panel by right clicking on your desktop then under display click Adjust desktop size and position select your main monitor if you have 2 then under scaling select full-screen mode instead of aspect ratio
TLDR: Change your monitor scaling mode from "aspect ratio" to Full screen mode
Sorry this is late just solved it myself
