Though you can't dispute 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 with each other. In such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the AMD Ryzen 5 3500X and the GeForce RTX 2060 separately.
