Although you can't argue with the numbers from this table, however, you need to understand that in reality some processors and video cards will not be capable to work in pairs. In such cases, FPS is calculated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the AMD Ryzen 9 5800X and the GeForce RTX 2060 separately.
