Although you can't argue with the numbers from this table, however, you need to know that in reality 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 AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 2700X and the GeForce RTX 3090 separately.
