It's only meant to be used with games that take advantage of more than one cpu core or something. With it on I can only get 50fps but off I can get 500 stable (etpro is capped to 125 though)

I use r_mode 4 even if I got widescreen atm, and it's the best imo

Hard to say. If you're running that resolution with a five year old computer, the perfect resolution would be different than if you have a new computer that's top-of-the-line with liquid cooling is worth thousands. We can't help you, if you don't give a bit more information about your hardware and etc. :)

I find res doesn't matter too much to me, I've played at 'r_mode "3"' and 'r_mode "-1"' (at 1680x1050), just keep turning the resolution down until you find something that works for you.
