Although you can't dispute with the numbers from this table, but you need to understand that in reality some processors and video cards will not be capable to work in pairs. For such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 3700 and the GeForce RTX 2080 separately.
