A Reddit user posted a report celebrating the fact of entering what many joke as “PC Master Race”which represents that portion of people who prefer the computer as their main gaming platform, adding to this decision some more technical factors, such as the possibility of enjoying games with a higher frame rate than consoles can deliver.
In addition, of course, there is the customization factor. Changes to the hardware allow you to maintain a certain alignment with the idea of continuing to enjoy the latest games in high graphic quality, dispensing with the more closed format, with a project thought out in advance, which is the case with consoles.
This user, with the nickname Flashy-Camera5059, says that he has always been a console user. He mentions that his journey in this universe began in 2005, with the PS1. In 2011 he moved on to the PS2, in 2013 he acquired the PS3, two years later he switched to the PS4 and in 2020 he bought the PS5.

Until then, he had never had contact with a PC Gamer. But he decided to change platforms. He sold his PS5 and went for a configuration with a 12th generation Core i7, RTX 4060 and 32 GB of DDR5 RAM.
The complete PC configuration is as follows:
- Motherboard: Motherboard: MSI B760M;
- Processor: 12th generation Core i7;
- Video card: RTX 4060;
- RAM memory: 32 GB DDR5
- Storage: SSD the 1 TB
- Power supply: unmentioned 700W model
He says he is surprised by the level of freedom he has when playing on PC, and directly mentions one of the most classic technical clichés of PCs Master Race: “I’m not stuck at 60 FPs anymore”.
A direct reference to one of the most traditional arguments when comparing PC and console as platforms: the possibility, if the hardware is adequate, of enjoying the main titles on the market with a frame rate higher than 60 frames per second. This is a usage method sought after by many gamers, especially those who enjoy the world of e-sports.
Since the story was posted on a Reddit community focused on PC Gamers, practically all of the comments on the post celebrated the change he made, pointing out that it was the best choice he could have made. Some highlighted the PC’s ability to use mods, the amount of configurations and adjustments that games allow, access to functions other than games (pornography and stock quotes were mentioned), and even the possibility of using the PS5 controller.

“You did well, I think consoles are always a scam. It’s true that at launch they sell expensive hardware for a low price and you can play directly, but after 2 years at most, it’s already an old machine.”said one person in the comments.
Among the very few counterpoints to the decision, one user said he made a mistake, and mentioned the issue of GTA VI. In 2025, the year of the release of Rockstar’s game, only the Xbox Series X/S and PS5 will receive the title. The PC version will be released at a later date.
What was the first game he decided to enjoy on the PC?
He was also asked about the first game he decided to play on PC. The debut title in his journey in the PC Master Race was Forza Horizon 5. “I couldn’t play on the PS5,” he said.
