Getting black bars in CS:GO with an AMD graphics card is pretty straightforward. First, right-click on your desktop and open the AMD Radeon Settings. Then, click on 'Display' and look for the 'Scaling Options' tab. You'll probably find your current setting on 'Full Panel'. Change it to 'Preserve aspect ratio' and boom, welcome to the black bars club in CS:GO! Make sure you also check the game settings and your monitor settings to ensure everything is aligned for the black bars effect.

Honestly, why bother with black bars? Stretch that screen and use every pixel you've got! It's like buying a large pizza and then eating just the middle. Maximize your view, maximize your game!

Lol just play in 4:3 aspect ratio and adjust the settings in your AMD control panel to 'Preserve aspect ratio'. Black bars will magically appear. It's not rocket science, just a throwback to the old-school gaming vibe.
