WELCOME TO THE PCMR
The world's largest, most exciting, and friendliest community of PC enthusiasts worldwide!
Remember, it's not about the hardware in your rig, but the specs in your heart! Everyone who loves PCs is welcome, regardless of actual ownership or specs.
Feel free to bask in the glory of the PC Master Race by checking the links at the top, where you can find all our socials. We recommend Reddit, as it's our main hub, but you'll find a bit of PCMR almost everywhere you go online..
PCMR SUBREDDIT turns 14 years old and REACHES 15 MILLION SUBS!
April 30th, 2025
On April 30th 2011 the Subreddit was created! A special moment that started a massive family gathering of people who needed a special home to share their love for PC gaming, technology and every serious or fun topic that centered around that!
On April 30th 2011 the Subreddit was created! A special moment that started a massive family gathering of people who needed a special home to share their love for PC gaming, technology and every serious or fun topic that centered around that!
Like a family, we have members of all types, people from all corners of the world, and we're a place where you can feel welcome in your love for PC. A place where your nationality, ethnicity, gender religion, political affiliation, economic status (etc, etc, etc) are irrelevant and where the only thing needed is the love for PC or the wish to learn more about it. Here, you are welcome.
This past week we've also reached 15 million subscribers right here on ready, which is an incredible number, but a testament to the passion and willingness to share their experiences that so many people in the world have for the PC and everything related to it.
It's been a long winding road but the love for PC joins us and makes us strong. Happy birthday and congratulations, everyone. Happy Birthday and Congratulations, PCMR!
The PCMR community was created back in early 2011, with the intent of making it a home for PC enthusiasts, a place where all of us could come in and share experiences, a place that didn't quite exist yet, and where you could have the most technical of conversations one second, and just share funny memes the next. Sometimes with the same person. A community with members of all ages, nationalities, and jobs, all joined together by their camaraderie, love for PCs, and their commitment to pushing the boundaries of what is possible with PC gaming and technology.
PCMR is a family. A place where you can feel welcome in your love for PC. A place where your age, nationality, race, gender, ability, sexuality, religion, political affiliation, and economic status DON'T MATTER, and where all PC enthusiasts are welcome. And so are you! If you love PCs, respect the other members, and want to be part of PCMR... Then you are!
As years passed, we changed and adapted to the reality of gaming and PC enthusiasm. We're now living in a second (or third) golden age of PC gaming, and being a PC gamer is easier than it ever was. Count on PCMR to help get the most out of your budget and opportunities, to hopefully build a wonderful work, learning, and gaming machine!
Welcome to the PC Master Race!
One of our main objectives is to make sure that everyone interested in PC Gaming can have in PCMR the home they need. That's why we want to foster a community that can help anyone interested in joining the glory of PC. If you're interested in doing so, our BUILDS PAGE is a great start! Do remember that, as with any build help page online, these are model builds that you should talk about with the community, and as such you should ALWAYS create a thread or ask a question in our subreddit or any of the other communities if you're on a quest to build a PC.
Likewise, feel free to use ANY of our communities (links in the banner/menu above) to ask for any kind of doubt you may have about PC ownership or PC building!
We're in this together, fighting for the love of PC gaming and PC enthusiasm and good practices for PC users in the gaming and tech industry.
So let's take a moment to celebrate this incredible achievement and the hard work and enthusiasm that has brought the PCMR community to where it is today. Here's to many more years of gaming, learning, and growing together!
Stay glorious!
PC Builds update
April 29, 2025
The world-famous PCMR builds have been recently updated to reflect new hardware prices and choices! The main purpose of our builds is to show you just how easy it is to pick your PC parts according to your budget. We’re unfortunately going through some turbulent times on what concerns GPU pricing, but we still have plenty of awesome suggestions for you to start or upgrade your PC gaming quest!
Building a pc may appear difficult at first glance, but with a bit of research, you will do just fine. The feeling of nerve-wracking fear and simultaneous excitement is normal for first-time builders. Just remember that these things were made to be put together by people just like you!
