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: (120.3 ÷ 130.7) × 100 = 92%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((130.7 - 120.3) ÷ 120.3) × 100 = 9%
You naturally think: "If RTX 5060 Ti 16GB is only 92% as fast, then RTX 4070 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: (61.9 ÷ 67.8) × 100 = 91%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((67.8 - 61.9) ÷ 61.9) × 100 = 10%
You naturally think: "If RTX 5060 Ti 16GB is only 91% as fast, then RTX 4070 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.
