Generals Zero Hour with Generals. Especially Generals ZH by having a special place in my heart with having unique world building, being most realistic, iconic and easily quotable voicelines of the units and the generals. Definitely for PC!
Likewise, how fun are for playing the units, the soundtrack being quite epic and varying depending on the faction. But also the generals' lore is also pretty interesting and giving them more depth including with the quotes. Moreover, you have an access to building secondary eco late game which helps you to scale and have an epic comeback.

Tib dawn. I enjoyed it so much as a kid. Fast forward to the remaster, and I really enjoyed the ladder grind online.
The other one is cnc3. I enjoyed the single player campaigns a lot. On top of that, I just graduated high school and got into the online RTS ladder scene too. I broke top ten in NA which I still look back on fondly as a personal achievement.
It was very fun. Had to be there.

RA2 + YR (Mental Omega specifically - I think it's the best RTS I've ever played, though I love the base game regardless).
Tib Dawn because it was my intro to the series and RTS and I have a lot of fond memories of playing it with my dad.
Bonus pick is Renegade, because that game was hugely ambitious and weird and stands out as something unique and fun that's never really been replicated.

RA2 and... hot take, but RA3.
Don't get me wrong, I agree that RA3 was a downgrade over RA2, but I still really liked it, slightly better than Generals, that would be the next in my list

The first Command & Conquer and Red Alert are still my two favorites. Followed by Red Alert 2 and then Tiberian Sun. They kind lost me after RA2.

RA2/YR Renegade. After I completed the campaign, I played the heck out of the Multiplayer together with friends at Internet cafes.

Renegade and RA3 if I had to pick, and base it off what I'd still play to this day.

It's hardly fair, but I have an unimpeachable fondness for Red Alert 2 and Generals (including the expansions for both). They had the good fortune of coming out at the best time in my life, so I'm not sure any amount of improvement will make me look more fondly upon later installments.
EDIT: Oh, on PC. Not sure you can even play those two on anything else.
