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 4060 FPS ÷ RX 6700 XT FPS) × 100
Example: (60.4 ÷ 64.3) × 100 = 94%
"X% faster"

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

Formula: ((RX 6700 XT FPS - RTX 4060 FPS) ÷ RTX 4060 FPS) × 100
Example: ((64.3 - 60.4) ÷ 60.4) × 100 = 6%
Why Someone Might Get Confused:

You naturally think: "If RTX 4060 is only 94% as fast, then RX 6700 XT should be 6% faster" — but that's incorrect.

The "6% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (94% of and 6% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.

Why Someone Might Get Confused:

You naturally think: "If RTX 4060 is only 81% as fast, then RX 6700 XT should be 19% faster" — but that's incorrect.

The "24% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (81% of and 24% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
