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: (130.7 ÷ 133.2) × 100 = 98%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((133.2 - 130.7) ÷ 130.7) × 100 = 2%
You naturally think: "If RTX 4070 is only 98% as fast, then RX 7800 XT should be 2% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "2% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (98% of and 2% 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: (67.8 ÷ 68.5) × 100 = 99%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((68.5 - 67.8) ÷ 67.8) × 100 = 1%
You naturally think: "If RTX 4070 is only 99% as fast, then RX 7800 XT 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: (39.4 ÷ 40.7) × 100 = 97%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((40.7 - 39.4) ÷ 39.4) × 100 = 3%
You naturally think: "If RTX 4070 is only 97% as fast, then RX 7800 XT should be 3% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "3% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (97% of and 3% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
