Though you can't dispute with the numbers from this table, but you need to understand that in reality some processors and video cards will not be capable to work in pairs. For such cases, FPS is calculated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce GTX 1080 and the Intel Core i5-13500T separately.
