If you want me to drop some resolution to choose from:
.................................................................................................................................
Stretched:

1280 x 960 Stretched - (players like s1mple does play with this one)
1440 x 1080 Stretched - (custom HD resolution, great image quality, but need a decent computer to run it smoothly.
.....................................................................................................................................
Blackbars/Normal

1024 x 768 Blackbars ( MAX FPS but looks sh*tty )
1280 x 960 Blackbars (decent graphic, decent fps)
1920 x 1080 HD (great looking, all details may be abit distracting, depending on your compute - could suffer some fps loss.
................................................................................................................................
My personal favorite: 16:10 - 1680 x 1080 Stretched (custom resolution) it's a cool mix between stretched and HD (not as stretchy as 1440, but still stretchy enough to get that "zoomed in" feeling.

4:3

More fps and more ez to hit

The lower resolution better

1. the only reason people have 4:3 is so you can see the enemy better, and lower resolution is not better, because if you have a 3 cent cpu you can have at least like 1080p or something, you dont need 500 fps, if you can just 1080p for 60 fps like if you have trouble seeing or your a pro and play competitively so your reaction time is faster so you can see the guy because its bigger, its good for that, also its not more easy to hit because the hitbox doesent change, he just looks bigger because the guy is more stretched

That's not the case depending on the setup. If pro's could switch to a higher resolutions today they would. Except after playing 20 years on the same resolution it's hard. Higher has more benefits these days. From POV, GPU usage and thus latency.

The 4:3 comes a different time that the level designed was more boxed. The systems not pushing higher FPS, let alone the tournament systems of that time. And CRT heavily dominated the scene. And players looked at beter players and use their settings back then.

The more fps better, that legend that says uhhhh you only 60 fps if you have 60hz is bs

"I lowered my resolution and i got around 400 fps ,and i Saw my movement smoother"

Lower resolution is to have more fps and that myth that 800*600 looks bad is false,i played with that and looks good ,same with 960*540

I bet most of you havent even tried to play this Game with low resolutions and you say its bad :steamfacepalm:
