Though you can't dispute with the figures from this table, however, you need to know that in fact some processors and video cards will not be capable to work with each other. In such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce RTX 2060 and the Intel Core i7-9700 separately.
