The PC master race doesn't exist.

or 2, if your X360 breaks twice... :D

honestly, what is cheaper/expensive. Depends on each persons buying habits.

As sales can be had for each. Sometimes PC games launch 10 dollars less than equivalent console games. Sometimes you can get 5 free games with 300 dollar videocard, etc. And console has PS+, and Xbox live.

By default almost every launched PC game is usually $10 cheaper.
However, if you shop around at the dozens of PC gaming stores, you are sure to get more taken off that.
More often than not Green man gaming has 20-30% discounts on unreleased games, so that's a good place to start. ;)

Essentially, if you ever pay full price for a PC game, then you're doing it wrong as a PC gamer.

pc master race dudes are those guys that win a shit ton of money streaming pc games/playing in gaming teams of lol/dota/starcraft etc , guys that are patrocinated by razer etc.

Its not some dude in his mother basement that spends 1000 dolars in some graphic card , picks 4 steam games that we will never finish just to take 2 or 3 pics to show how awsome the graphics are and try to make fun of console people.

I disagree.

The PC Master Race is called as such because it's a no-compromise gaming platform.
1) Best Graphics. - PC.
2) Best Sound. - PC.
3) Best Controls in terms of accuracy and responsiveness. - PC.
4) Largest Game Library. - PC.
5) Most flexible platform. - PC.

Other bonuses include: A more mature community, you do see less of the more high-pitched vocal young gamers that are often on consoles due to the costs of entry into the ecosystem, which is fantastic.

THAT is why it's called the "Gaming Master Race". - All other platforms you need to make concessions to play games.

That being said your OP is completely false. You can build a PC that can play every game with good settings for $1000. Factor in the insane Steam sales and its MUCH cheaper than console gaming. 

Then in 2 years you can't.

A common misconception.  What, do you think consoles are the only devices that get updates?  All one needs to do is check Nvidia and AMD's driver notes to see the  routine performance improvements across numerous titles.  The idea that PC hardware is unsupported is a fallacy.  

The PC is also on a massive quest of efficiency as of late with the latest low-level improvements coming to Direct X 12, free performance for all PC gamers!

My PC is almost 3 years old, even if I didn't upgrade my GPU's I could have still played everything at 1440P with ease, so that kind of blows away that 2-year misconception.
And yes, even though my PC is almost 3 years old, you still can't really buy much faster.
