Although you can't argue with the figures from this table, however, you need to know that in reality some processors and video cards will not be able to work together. In such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the AMD Ryzen 9 3900X and the GeForce RTX 2080 separately.
