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: (93.6 ÷ 94.5) × 100 = 99%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((94.5 - 93.6) ÷ 93.6) × 100 = 1%
You naturally think: "If RX 6800 XT is only 99% as fast, then RTX 4070 should be 1% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "1% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (99% of and 1% 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: (64.8 ÷ 67.8) × 100 = 96%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((67.8 - 64.8) ÷ 64.8) × 100 = 5%
You naturally think: "If RX 6800 XT is only 96% as fast, then RTX 4070 should be 4% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "5% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (96% of and 5% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
