What i do to Get TRUE Stretched Resolution in Valorant Without Any Tools

My default resolution is 440×1080 –  Here’s how to Get TRUE Stretched Resolution in Valorant Without Any Tools

Many players believe they need third-party software to achieve a stretched resolution in Valorant, but that’s not true. Pro players like Rosu and Gats use built-in settings to achieve a true stretched resolution, and you can too! This guide will show you step-by-step how to set up stretched resolution without any quality loss, input delay, or risk of getting banned.

Understanding Stretched Resolutions

Before diving into the setup, let’s clarify the two types of stretched resolutions:

1. True Stretched Resolution – This properly stretches everything, including the UI and crosshair. This is what most pro players use as it makes enemies appear wider, giving an aiming advantage.
2. Fake Stretched Resolution – This only stretches the game world, leaving the UI and crosshair unchanged. This happens when you don’t properly configure Windows settings, leading to a suboptimal experience.

This guide will help you achieve the true stretched resolution just like the pros, using only NVIDIA Control Panel.

Step-by-Step Setup Guide

Step 1: Open NVIDIA Control Panel

• Right-click on your desktop and select NVIDIA Control Panel.
• In the left-hand menu, click Change Resolution.

Step 2: Create a Custom Resolution

• Click the Customize button.
• Check Enable resolutions not exposed by the display.
• Click Create Custom Resolution.
• Enter your preferred resolution. For example, Rosu uses 1280×960.
• Set your refresh rate to match your monitor.
• Click Test and then OK.

Step 3: Adjust Scaling Settings

• Go to Adjust Desktop Size and Position.
• Under Scaling Mode, select Full-Screen.
• Under Perform Scaling On, change Display to GPU.
• Click Apply and confirm the changes.

Step 4: Disable DSR Factors

• Go to Manage 3D Settings in NVIDIA Control Panel.
• Ensure that DSR Factors is turned off to prevent unwanted resolution scaling.

Applying Stretched Resolution in Valorant

Now that your custom resolution is set up, follow these steps in Valorant:

1. Open Valorant and go to Settings.
2. Set Display Mode to Windowed Full-Screen.
3. Apply the Custom Resolution:
   • Open NVIDIA Control Panel.
   • Go to Change Resolution.
   • Select the custom resolution you created earlier.
   • Click Apply.
4. Switch Back to Full-Screen Mode:
   • Go back to Valorant settings.
   • Change Display Mode to Full-Screen.
   • Choose the custom resolution you set up.
   • Apply the settings.

Now your game should display in a true stretched resolution with no black bars or loss of quality.

Fixing Black Bars Issue

If you see black bars instead of a stretched screen, follow these steps:

1. Close Valorant.
2. Open the Run dialog box (press Windows + R).
3. Type appdata and hit Enter.
4. Navigate to Local > Valorant > Saved > Config.
5. Open the most recently modified folder.
6. Go to the Windows folder and open GameUserSettings.ini using Notepad.
7. Find the line bShouldLetterbox=True and change it to False.
8. Save the file and restart Valorant.
