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: (84.1 ÷ 90.2) × 100 = 93%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((90.2 - 84.1) ÷ 84.1) × 100 = 7%
You naturally think: "If RX 6800 is only 93% as fast, then RTX 3080 should be 7% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "7% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (93% of and 7% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.

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: (57.7 ÷ 62.7) × 100 = 92%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((62.7 - 57.7) ÷ 57.7) × 100 = 9%
You naturally think: "If RX 6800 is only 92% as fast, then RTX 3080 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.

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: (34.1 ÷ 39.4) × 100 = 87%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((39.4 - 34.1) ÷ 34.1) × 100 = 16%
You naturally think: "If RX 6800 is only 87% as fast, then RTX 3080 should be 13% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "16% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (87% of and 16% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
