General Explanation of Benchmark Percentages

When you see two FPS numbers, there are two common but different ways to show the difference:

"X% of the performance"

This compares the slower card to the faster card.

Formula: (RTX 2070 FPS ÷ RX 6650 XT FPS) × 100
Example: (34.2 ÷ 39.8) × 100 = 86%
"X% faster"

This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.

Formula: ((RX 6650 XT FPS - RTX 2070 FPS) ÷ RTX 2070 FPS) × 100
Example: ((39.8 - 34.2) ÷ 34.2) × 100 = 16%
Why Someone Might Get Confused:

You naturally think: "If RTX 2070 is only 86% as fast, then RX 6650 XT should be 14% faster" — but that's incorrect.

The "16% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (86% of and 16% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.

General Explanation of Benchmark Percentages

When you see two FPS numbers, there are two common but different ways to show the difference:

"X% of the performance"

This compares the slower card to the faster card.

Formula: (RTX 2070 FPS ÷ RX 6650 XT FPS) × 100
Example: (19.8 ÷ 20.9) × 100 = 95%
"X% faster"

This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.

Formula: ((RX 6650 XT FPS - RTX 2070 FPS) ÷ RTX 2070 FPS) × 100
Example: ((20.9 - 19.8) ÷ 19.8) × 100 = 6%
Why Someone Might Get Confused:

You naturally think: "If RTX 2070 is only 95% as fast, then RX 6650 XT should be 5% faster" — but that's incorrect.

The "6% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (95% of and 6% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
