How to fix black bars on Valorant
To fix the black bars in Valorant, head into the game's settings and adjust the display mode to 'Fullscreen' instead of 'Windowed' or 'Borderless'. Also, make sure your in-game resolution matches your monitor's native resolution. Boom! No more black bars.

Honestly, black bars might just mean you're playing with the wrong aspect ratio. Switch it up in the settings until it fits your screen perfectly. Remember, some old monitors might not support newer aspect ratios, so it could also be a hardware limit.
Changing resolution didn't help? Try updating your graphics card drivers. Outdated drivers can cause all sorts of display issues, including those annoying black bars.
Just change your resolution settings in Valorant to match your screen's default. Worked for me like a charm!
