How to Add Any Custom Resolution – Boost FPS & Aim Stretched 4:3 CRU Guide

Stretched resolution isn’t placebo — when it’s done correctly, it can change how enemies move across your screen, how consistent your aim feels, and how clean your visuals are in competitive FPS games like Valorant.
The problem is that Windows and GPU drivers don’t expose true stretched resolutions like 1440×1080 by default. When players try to force them, they usually end up with black bars, blurry scaling, broken aspect ratios, or added input lag.

In this video, I’ll show you a safe, clean, and fully reversible method to add true 4:3 stretched resolutions using CRU (Custom Resolution Utility) and configure them properly in AMD Adrenalin for low latency, clean scaling, and zero black bars.
This works on Windows 10 & Windows 11, and it’s perfect for Valorant, CS-style shooters, and competitive FPS players who want a real visual advantage — not placebo.
