Although you can't dispute with the numbers from this table, but you need to understand that in fact some processors and video cards will not be capable to work together. For such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce RTX 2060 and the Intel Core i5-10600K separately.
