rya11111Rize is the BEST GIRL. が 投稿

/r/pcmasterrace

69,403 Glorious racers for 2 years.

"PC gaming is the destiny of Mankind" - GabeN.

Today in the world of gaming where Playstation and XBOX have taken the upper hand, Here at /r/pcmasterrace they have decided to rewrite the prophecy and show who the real gods of gaming are.

PC or Personal Computer gaming is awesome. Being a PC gamer myself i can attest to it. Its a machine designed to solve and enlighten the filthy brain of the mankind to a whole new dimension of gaming.

PC gaming is cheaper, effective, customizable to your deepest of your heart desires which enables you to create a eutopia of gaming and hella lot more fun. PC gaming gave the actual birth to gaming experience to humans and at /r/pcmasterrace, they have made the mission to bring the back the rightful king back to his throne.

If you are into PC gaming you would know that one of the brave heroes who are bringing PC gaming to its supreme form is steam led by the battleship, the Zeus of PC gaming Gabe Newell the Co-Founder of Valve corporation, and they are bringing back the real fun of gaming by creating a wide network all over the world and creating a whole new generation which is destined to see the greatness of PC Gaming. So to celebrate this glorious race we bring you the greatest subreddit in the universe.

ALL HAIL GABEN

So in light of this subreddit, all hail the moderators!

1. What motivated you to create/moderate this subreddit ?

pedro19: By pure luck, I stumpled upon a comment on r/gaming a couple years ago which mentioned /r/pcmasterrace. I quickly clicked the link, expecting a glorious and safe place where the members of the masterrace could gather. When I saw that such a subreddit had not yet been created, I did it myself, under the light of Gaben.
Melvar_10: I guess it was just that I am on reddit quite a bit, but was not a mod. I really enjoyed the sub, so when pedro was taking on mods, i jumped on the offer because i thought it be fun, and it is!
medioxcore: i wanted to mod because i love this sub. i love the tongue-in-cheek humor. i love the circle jerk. and i love PC gaming.
Tizaki: I have known PC to be the Master Race gaming platform since 2001. I found this one day through a link from another sub and started writing guides to show peasants the light of true gaming.
notwitty_username: I love it, I really like how positive the community is, when you go through threads, you see upvotes all the way down, there is rarely a hidden comment.
the_Magnet: When I found /r/pcmasterrace I absolutely loved it and being around people that are so friendly and funny makes modding so much easier.
bear_arthur: Pedro created this subreddit, so I'll let him answer this!

2. What's your PC Battleship consist of ?

pedro19: Acer Laptop with a T6600 2.2 Ghz processor, 4 GB DDR3 RAM and an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570. Monetary and mobility issues are the cause for the relatively low specs of my shrine, but Newell does not discriminate between shrines, as he loves his children all the same.
Melvar_10: i5 3570 overclocked to 4.2Ghz, AMD radeon HD 7950, 8GB RAM, Gigabyte ud3H mobo, 1TB, 120GB SSD 620watt Seasonic PSU, Bitfenix colossus full ATX tower.
medioxcore: i5 2500k, AMD radeon HD 7850, 8GB RAM, asrock p67 pro3 MOBO, 4.5TB of disk space, spread across 3 HDDs
Tizaki: It's a standard black box Fractal Design case with an A10-6800k. AMD sent it to me for free because I'm a member of their Test Drive program. I hope to recieve an early Kaveri chip for testing in the next few months!
notwitty_username: http://imgur.com/a/Ud7SB :)
the_Magnet: Oh god. My current PC is some old pre-built thing I got about 4 or 5 years ago and it was NOT designed for gaming. i3 @3.07GHz, 4GB RAM with integrated graphics. Thank GabeN I'm upgrading soon
bear_arthur: i5 2500K OC'd to 4.2 Ghz, 2 x GTX 660's in SLI, 16 GB RAM, Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z mobo.

3. What is your dream gaming station ?

pedro19: A dream heaven desktop with an Intel Xeon E5-2687W v2 @ 3.40GHz, complete with 16 GB of RAM and a 2 GeForce GTX 780 Ti's in SLI. This would be a dream, but one could easily build 4 very capable machines with the money needed to set one of those up and that's what I would probably do, even if there were no money restrictions. Then a fully capable 15" gaming laptop for when you want both power and mobility.
Melvar_10: Oh the choices.... Honestly, the best i7cpu, 4 290x or 780ti's in x-fire/SLI, many SSDs and HDDs, the best mobo, 32GB ram, the corsair 900D obsidan and a custom liquid cooling loop.
medioxcore: i actually made up a wishlist back in march.
Tizaki: If I could get it for free? A de-lidded watercooled 6-core i7 with a single 780Ti (I don't like dual GPUs) and 2 256GB SSDs in RAID 0.
notwitty_username: 1080p Rift whenever it comes out, 6x 27" Dell UltraSharp U2713HM, 1x 780ti, Intel Core i7-3970X, 64GB RAM at as high as RAM clocks get these days, TB's worth of SSD's. Water cooling all around, Noctua fans, Fractal case.
the_Magnet: I wouldn't know where to begin!
bear_arthur: If Gabe Newell (our lord and savior) came to my house himself and delivered a Steam box, in any size and form factor, that would be my dream station.

4. How is your sub different compared to others ?

pedro19: The main difference between our sub and most other more or less related subs is the mods. We believe mods should exist to maintain order, but never to enforce unnatural rules or to silence those who respectfully disagree with us. Everyone is welcome on /r/pcmasterrace, even if they do not belong to the master race.
Melvar_10: It's interesting in that we are clearly a satire subreddit, yet as bear_arthur said, when the time arises, we actually help those who are ignorant of the ways of PC and Gabe Newell
medioxcore: We are GabeN's chosen people. not different; superior.
Tizaki: We provide refuge to our neglected brothers in need. It's the one place where you can talk about any aspect of PCs and PC gaming and not worry about disapproval from the moderators or the other members. We also have our own Steam group as well as Mumble server.
notwitty_username: It's a whole lot more welcoming than /r/pcgaming.
the_Magnet: By far some of the funniest, friendliest and helpful people on Reddit I've seen.
bear_arthur: We consider ourselves tasked with helping the unwashed masses in their ascension to greater hardware, better sales, and better game experiences!

5. Open mic! Speak your hearts out!

pedro19: We are now the biggest pc gaming sub on reddit and we plan to be the Internet lighthouse of Gaben. Join us, brethren.
Melvar_10: I'm a hungry person.
medioxcore: listen to more touche amore.
Tizaki: I'm writing a huge wiki. Read it.
notwitty_username: It seems as though this subreddit is plainly a joke, and is merely a place where PC gamers come together and talk, but really I feel that all the preaching and "holiness" is really a fantastic way of communicating ones passion for gaming (and GabeN :)).
the_Magnet: Well I'm one of the new mods brought over from /r/gloriouspcmasterrace and I'm glad to be brought back over to the home land!
bear_arthur: I like turtles. :3

Happy Holidays!

"They have made the mission to bring the back the rightful king back to his throne."

No offense OP, but PC never left the throne.

[–]venn177 185ポイント186ポイント  (18子コメント)

There was a time when a majority believed the PC had died.

The kingdom might have been covered by shadow, but no more. We shine brighter than the peasantry plebs every day.

[–]veevoir 64ポイント65ポイント  (12子コメント)

But "PC" has died! PC sales go down.. as no self-respecting gamer will buy a pre-made crapbox. And business doesnt need to upgrade the taxboxes for quite some time.

So "PC" sales dive, while PC component sales go up. Go figure.

But that doesn't matter for executives nor journalists, in their summaries they need something tanglible and thus a fundamental error is born - treating PC as a closed box, a single thing that is sold like a peasantbox.

I was kind of surprised to see that they didn't all have PCs better than mine. I have a $1000 build from 9 months ago. I went for more CPU power than I need for gaming but it's necessary for my job. I could have gotten a better GPU if I got an i5 instead of an i7.

/u/pedro19 has specs close to mine. I never really felt close to the master race but now I feel better :,)

[–]MertBot 22ポイント23ポイント  (3子コメント)

Never worry about not "feeling close" - the master race isn't about having the flashiest or most expensive PC, it's simply about acknowledging that our glorious platform is the best for gaming.

[–]runealex007 3ポイント4ポイント  (2子コメント)

That's good. This sub can just seem a little shallow

[–]ur_opinion_is_wrong 12ポイント13ポイント  (1子コメント)

We often give consoles a hard time because peasants quite often talk about superior hardware as I'm sure you can see. While we don't care how good your specs are we do care to squash the misinformation that the console has mind-blowing-better-than-everything specs because it's simply not true.

Which on that note I was actually hoping for some mind blowing console hardware. I was hoping one or both Sony and MS would come out with a new tech that would really push the envelop but instead you get a 500 dollar mid-grade pc running on a closed system.

And not to beat a dead horse but you would think in 2013 and for a system will likely be their flagship between 2014 - 2020 could do AT LEAST 1080p at 60 fps. I'm not even worried about consoles. Within a few years at most consoles players will begin to see just how inferior their system is when 1080p is like 720p and we've moved on to 4k.

I think that's also when the Steambox will really take off. Peasants will see PC Gaming and the Steambox is a better deal. They won't have to wait 8 years for new hardware. They can upgrade and what not as they need and want.

Edit: Forgot this...

VI. Thou shalt not belittle those of our faith with lesser shrines.

[–]SparroHawc 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

The selection on Steam is already incredible, and it doesn't take many Steam sales to make a PC a FAR better option, monetarily speaking. Even local multiplayer is coming into its own on PC, a market that used to be fairly heavily in the favor of consoles. The SteamBox is just going to make it that much more apparent to the peasantry.

[–]lexxiverse 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

My current system is sub-par to most rigs posted to this sub, but there's not a game in my library that I can't play at high graphics settings. For most of those with majorly superior specs, it's less out of necessity and more out of hobby.

Intel i7 860 @2.8GHz, AMD Radeon 5450, 6 GB of RAM

I just finally upgraded from 3 to 6 GB of RAM this year because newer games were finally chugging at medium to high graphics settings. My current bottleneck is the graphics card, which will get replaced before long.

It doesn't take a super computer to be a PC gamer.

[–]scotbud123 0ポイント1ポイント  (3子コメント)

You should never feel like that, if you can run games at 1080p, 30 FPS, on low settings (which isn't that impressive, I agree) you're still ahead of the Xbox One and PS4, so rejoice!

Not to mention all the other benefits of owning a PC.

[–]runealex007 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

That's true. That's what I use when peasants try to attack me with my own specs. Then I just go "open system, cheap as fuck games, and my graphics are still better than yours. Need I go on?"

Then this is seriously what the peasant said back: "at least I'm not fat"

[–]scotbud123 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Of course, they can't actually give a retort because none exist, so they resort to their ad-hominems.
