"Windows" and "Tor relay" don't really go together.
The Windows bufferevents code rotted due to lack of testing, so it's hard to run a performant Tor relay on Windows.
But we'd welcome patches to get Tor working better on Windows. After all, a large number of Tor clients, and some hidden services, are on Windows.

And if he wants to run only a Tor relay, advantage to have Windows OS is relative ;) Not really agree...
But agree about cpu speed ;) I don't remember, RPi v3 has the famous AES-NI that make everything faster for Tor ? :s

The disadvantage of the PC approach is space and higher power consumption, but the advantage is that you can use *BSD and Windows, and can possibly take advantage of faster speeds.
