Hey, basically I play CS:GO at a low resolution but my monitor is 4K. I need to keep it in Fullscreen Windowed, as I have many monitors. Here is where my problem starts; to change resolution, you have to put CS:GO into fullscreen which is a big no no. What I've been doing is changing the resolution manually in Windows, but I have to change it every time I launch CS:GO which is a pain.

 

TL:DR - How to keep CS:GO at a low resolution in Fullscreen-Windowed while keeping my monitor at a high res (or to find a way to quickly switch)

Set your monitor to the same resolution as what you want to run in CS GO. Or don't want a smaller window. I believe you can do -h 1920 -w 1080 if you wanted to do 1080P, however I am unsure if thiis works in fullscreen windowed

Did 3840x2160 and it did fill up my screen, but it sadly doesn't keep the 4:3 resolution :(

Managed to force it to stay at the 4:3 resolution, but now it looks like this
