Although you can't dispute with the numbers from this table, but you need to know that in reality some processors and video cards will not be capable to work in pairs. For such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X and the Radeon RX 6800 separately.
