Although you can't argue with the figures from this table, but you need to understand 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 Intel Core i5-10500 and the GeForce RTX 2060 separately.
