Though you can't argue with the figures from this table, however, you need to know that in fact some processors and video cards will not be able to work with each other. For such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and the GeForce RTX 2060 separately.
