Though you can't argue with the figures from this table, but you need to understand that in fact some processors and video cards will not be capable to work together. In such cases, FPS is calculated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce RTX 3090 and the AMD Ryzen 7 1800X separately.
