By the way, is there any method to disable font antialiasing in the options,servers and console windows ?

Same resolution for me and I cant read servers list because of too tiny fonts.

+1 Not sure of my resolution but I also have small fonts which are hard to read

I can confirm this for 1600 by 900 as well. It probably bears mentioning (as your first screenshot demonstrates) that the window itself is too small by default and has to be manually resized every time the game is restarted.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, the chat fields and scoreboard suffer from this as well. I'm guessing it's an issue with the font it uses as a fallback for systems that don't have Tahoma (or Verdana; I can never tell the difference between those two).
