1080p Ultra
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: (76.8 ÷ 84) × 100 = 91%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((84 - 76.8) ÷ 76.8) × 100 = 9%
You naturally think: "If RTX 2080 Ti is only 91% as fast, then RX 9060 XT 8GB should be 9% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "9% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (91% of and 9% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.

1440p QHD — 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: (48.2 ÷ 51.6) × 100 = 93%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((51.6 - 48.2) ÷ 48.2) × 100 = 7%
You naturally think: "If RX 9060 XT 8GB is only 93% as fast, then RTX 2080 Ti should be 7% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "7% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (93% of and 7% 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: (24.4 ÷ 31) × 100 = 79%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((31 - 24.4) ÷ 24.4) × 100 = 27%
You naturally think: "If RX 9060 XT 8GB is only 79% as fast, then RTX 2080 Ti should be 21% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "27% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (79% of and 27% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
