When you see two FPS numbers, there are two common but different ways to show the difference:
This compares the slower card to the faster card.
Example: (127 ÷ 138) × 100 = 92%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((138 - 127) ÷ 127) × 100 = 9%
You naturally think: "If Core i3-13100 is only 92% as fast, then Ryzen 5 5600X should be 8% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "9% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (92% of and 9% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
