4:3(1280x960) or 16:9(1920x1080)?
I've been testing these two aspect ratios and switched them around in csgo for some time now and this is what i found out. When i play at 4:3(1280x960) i feel it's alot easier to use the pistols and get accurate headshot alot easier and i find it easier to keep the crosshair at heads. Whenever i play 16:9(1920x1080) the game looks epic, but everything gets bigger (fov) and its alot harder to hit headshots with pistols and i also feel its not as consistant as on 4:3.

i played at 144hz, 75% vibrance, all max settings, vsync off, and Full-Screen(Stretched/ no black bars) G-Sync On, max fps set to 999 and all graphics setting on MAX.

What do you guys think about this? I'm having a hard time choosing between skill / good graphics

it helps to put black bars on (thats what i experience) but changing how far you are away from your monitor also can decide how easily you can see soemone

I have a 1080p monitor, but doesn't the enemies get even slimmer on that resolution? compared to 1920x1080p?

I play at 16:9, 1366x768, but it's mostly a personal thing. What's important is if you're comfortable. As long as you feel good, play along

EDIT: I've tried the 1920 thing, but it just didn't suit me. Although things did seem quite nice, I rather play better than with high res (that's one of the reasons I play on low settings too).
