Though you can't dispute with the numbers from this table, however, you need to understand that in reality some processors and video cards will not be able to work together. In such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D and the GeForce RTX 4090 separately.
