Though you can't dispute with the numbers from this table, but you need to know 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 Intel Core i7-8700 and the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti separately.
