Windows 7 and 10 are pretty rock solid as is modern Direct X and Nvidia/AmdATI Graphics Drivers, I've not seen a blue screen for about 10 years myself.
Macs and PCs have used the same hardware (intel architecture) for while now anyway.

It depends on how much you want to get out of your system...I'd rather have a PC as it completely customizeable. Parts of mine (mainly a storage HDD drive) are from my very first PC, so more than 10 years old. I think my last BlueScreen was with WinVista...while I upgraded it to Win7. xD

Macs have the problem that I can't really adjust them to my liking, I can't upgrade them without major problems and the majority of games I like to play either does not run on them or you need an extremely expensive one. And then you still have the problem that a lot of games are simply not released for Mac. It's personal preference of course. But I'd rather cut off one foot than use a Mac instead of a PC.
