Though you can't dispute with the numbers from this table, however, you need to understand that in reality some processors and video cards will not be able to work in pairs. In such cases, FPS is calculated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the Intel Core i3-13300F and the GeForce RTX 3080 separately.
