Although you can't dispute with the numbers 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 Intel Core i5-1235U and the GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile separately.
