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: (29.6 ÷ 43.7) × 100 = 68%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((43.7 - 29.6) ÷ 29.6) × 100 = 48%
You naturally think: "If RX 5500 XT 4GB is only 68% as fast, then RX 6600 should be 32% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "48% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (68% of and 48% 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: (17.7 ÷ 27.9) × 100 = 63%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((27.9 - 17.7) ÷ 17.7) × 100 = 58%
You naturally think: "If RX 5500 XT 4GB is only 63% as fast, then RX 6600 should be 37% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "58% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (63% of and 58% 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: (9.8 ÷ 14.4) × 100 = 68%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((14.4 - 9.8) ÷ 9.8) × 100 = 47%
You naturally think: "If RX 5500 XT 4GB is only 68% as fast, then RX 6600 should be 32% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "47% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (68% of and 47% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
