Though you can't argue with the figures from this table, however, you need to understand that in fact some processors and video cards will not be capable to work with each other. In such cases, FPS is calculated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the GeForce RTX 4080 and the Intel Core i5-12600 separately.
