Widescreen resolutions?

I just got a Samsung 2232GW 2ms 22" Widescreen monitor. Its aspect ratio is 16:10 I believe. CS only has 1680X1050 as an option under widescreen in the settings. Is there any way to force another resolution? Like 852x480 or 1280x720?

in your nvidia drivers, you have an option to fit 4:3 resolution (there are black stripes on the side). this option does work in 60hz only. if you want to play at 75hz, you can create a custom resolution with the nvidia control panel (create 800X500 @ 75hz)

ps: i tried 640x400 but it doesn't work for cs, i have the latest forceware drivers and i have a Samsung 2032BW @ 1680X1050, hope it helps ^__^,

and when to want to try another resolution, make sure than your new resolution is a 16:10 one ( 1680/1050=1.6 800/500=1.6 ....)
