Though you can't dispute 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 with each other. For such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce RTX 3080 Mobile and the Intel Core i9-12900HK separately.
