Although you can't argue with the figures from this table, but you need to know that in reality some processors and video cards will not be able to work with each other. In such cases, FPS is calculated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the AMD Ryzen 5 2600X and the GeForce RTX 3070 separately.
