Resolution and Video Settings: The 4:3 Stretched Advantage
shroud plays at 2560x1440, 4:3 aspect ratio, stretched scaling, fullscreen. This is one of the most common pro setups: enemy player models appear wider on the horizontal axis, which many players find easier to track and crosshair-place.
Video settings prioritize visibility and frame rate over visual flair:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 2560x1440 |
| Aspect Ratio | 4:3 (Stretched) |
| Display Mode | Fullscreen |
| Boost Player Contrast | Enabled |
| Global Shadow Quality | High |
| Model / Texture Detail | Low |
| Shader Detail | Low |
| Particle Detail | Low |
| Multisampling Anti-Aliasing | 4x MSAA |
| Texture Filtering | Bilinear |
| Ambient Occlusion | Disabled |
| NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency | Enabled |
| FidelityFX Super Resolution | Disabled |
The pattern is familiar across top players: high shadows for depth perception, low effects for FPS, and MSAA to keep jagged edges clean at 4:3. shroud's ASUS ROG PG27AQDM monitor is built for minimal input latency.
shroud's Crosshair Code and Viewmodel
shroud uses a Classic Static White crosshair—small, clean, and completely stable during movement and spray. Import it directly in CS2:

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Style | Classic Static |
| Color | White |
| Length | — |
| Thickness | — |
| Gap | — |
| Outline | No |
| Center Dot | No |
| Follow Recoil | No |
The white crosshair pairs well with this sensitivity: no recoil expansion, no dynamic spread—just a stable center point for muscle-memory micro-adjustments during sprays and flicks.
Viewmodel commands
Paste these into your console to match shroud's weapon position:
viewmodel_fov 68; viewmodel_offset_x 2.5; viewmodel_offset_y 1; viewmodel_offset_z -1.5; viewmodel_presetpos 2
This is a classic competitive viewmodel: FOV 68, weapon shifted slightly right and pulled back to minimize screen obstruction—ideal for maximum visibility during wide swings and angle clears.

Should You Copy shroud's Settings?
Most 2026 community guides agree: learn from shroud, but do not blindly copy.
— eDPI is in a moderate range that many players find comfortable as a starting point.
A smarter approach:
- Start nearby. Try 1600 DPI × 1.0–1.5 sensitivity and adjust gradually until you find your ceiling.
- Test resolution separately. 2560x1440 stretched works for pros, but your monitor and GPU may favor a different setup.
- Import the crosshair first. It is the easiest element to try risk-free—paste
CSGO-oWwnn-Keks9-w8fEW-LnBEY-pYOAKand see if the classic static style fits your eye. - Compare with other pros. Browse settings for donk, ZywOo, NiKo on take.skin to find a sensitivity band that matches your role.
shroud's config is an excellent reference for how a top retired content creator optimizes for consistency + control. But the best settings are always the ones you can run consistently, day after day, without sacrificing control.
