Though you can't argue with the figures from this table, but you need to know that in reality some processors and video cards will not be capable to work with each other. For such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce GTX 1080 and the Intel Core i9-13900T separately.
