General Explanation of Benchmark Percentages

When you see two FPS numbers, there are two common but different ways to show the difference:

"X% of the performance"

This compares the slower card to the faster card.

Formula: (Ryzen 5 5600G FPS ÷ Core i3-13100 FPS) × 100
Example: (118 ÷ 127) × 100 = 93%
"X% faster"

This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.

Formula: ((Core i3-13100 FPS - Ryzen 5 5600G FPS) ÷ Ryzen 5 5600G FPS) × 100
Example: ((127 - 118) ÷ 118) × 100 = 8%
Why Someone Might Get Confused:

You naturally think: "If Ryzen 5 5600G is only 93% as fast, then Core i3-13100 should be 7% faster" — but that's incorrect.

The "8% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (93% of and 8% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
