20"?

r_mode -1
r_customwidth 1440
r_customheight 900

imo

If you used cg_fov 90 before, then use cg_fov 100.39487232

MM... preference.

I'm playing at as low as I can, since 1280x800 doesnt seem to be working...

Honestly though I'd rather play at 800x500

well yeah I just thought it might be wise to play at native resolution if other hardware is good enough

100.39487232?

why not 100.39487234?

because cg_fov 90 @ 4:3 (800x600 etc) == cg_fov 100.39487232 @ 16:10 (1440x900, 1680x1050 etc)

it's the only way to get the exact same vertical fov, which gives you a wider fov...

it's vey stupid to play in fov 90 @ widescreen, because then you are not seeing any more, and you should see more, which is why you keep your vertical fov
