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: (55.6 ÷ 59) × 100 = 94%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((59 - 55.6) ÷ 55.6) × 100 = 6%
You naturally think: "If RTX 5060 Ti 8GB is only 94% as fast, then RX 9060 XT 16GB 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.

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: (22.3 ÷ 33.9) × 100 = 66%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((33.9 - 22.3) ÷ 22.3) × 100 = 52%
You naturally think: "If RTX 5060 Ti 8GB is only 66% as fast, then RX 9060 XT 16GB should be 34% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "52% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (66% of and 52% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
