Full HD — max settings
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: (80.6 ÷ 90.2) × 100 = 89%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((90.2 - 80.6) ÷ 80.6) × 100 = 12%
You naturally think: "If RX 7700 XT is only 89% as fast, then RTX 3080 should be 11% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "12% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (89% of and 12% 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: (60.2 ÷ 62.7) × 100 = 96%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((62.7 - 60.2) ÷ 60.2) × 100 = 4%
You naturally think: "If RX 7700 XT is only 96% as fast, then RTX 3080 should be 4% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "4% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (96% of and 4% 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: (34.7 ÷ 39.4) × 100 = 88%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((39.4 - 34.7) ÷ 34.7) × 100 = 14%
You naturally think: "If RX 7700 XT is only 88% as fast, then RTX 3080 should be 12% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "14% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (88% of and 14% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
