Though you can't dispute with the numbers from this table, however, you need to know that in reality some processors and video cards will not be able to work in pairs. For such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce GTX 1080 and the Intel Core i5-13400 separately.
