Though you can't argue with the numbers from this table, but you need to understand that in reality some processors and video cards will not be capable to work in pairs. In such cases, FPS is calculated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce RTX 3090 and the Intel Core i9-11900KF separately.
