Although you can't argue with the numbers from this table, but you need to know that in reality some processors and video cards will not be able to work in pairs. In such cases, FPS is evaluated theoretically according to the formula based on the performance of the Radeon RX 6900 XT and the AMD Ryzen 7 3800X separately.
