Valve has released its Steam Hardware Survey results for December 2014, showing us which components most PC gamers are running.<\/p>\n

While not every PC gamer plays through Steam, we can say with a degree\u00a0of certainty that the results paint an accurate picture of what the average PC looks like.<\/p>\n

Now, onto the important bit: does your PC beat the Steam average?<\/p>\n

The Steam survey<\/a> for December did not seem to have much information on GPUs, and was therefore not as in depth as we would like. If the information is added we will be sure to update\u00a0the article.<\/p>\n
