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: (RX 6600 XT FPS ÷ RTX 3060 Ti FPS) × 100
Example: (60.8 ÷ 67.1) × 100 = 91%
"X% faster"

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

Formula: ((RTX 3060 Ti FPS - RX 6600 XT FPS) ÷ RX 6600 XT FPS) × 100
Example: ((67.1 - 60.8) ÷ 60.8) × 100 = 10%
Why Someone Might Get Confused:

You naturally think: "If RX 6600 XT is only 91% as fast, then RTX 3060 Ti should be 9% faster" — but that's incorrect.

The "10% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (91% of and 10% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.

Why Someone Might Get Confused:

You naturally think: "If RX 6600 XT is only 83% as fast, then RTX 3060 Ti should be 17% faster" — but that's incorrect.

The "21% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (83% of and 21% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
