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: (79.7 ÷ 84) × 100 = 95%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((84 - 79.7) ÷ 79.7) × 100 = 5%
You naturally think: "If RTX 3070 Ti is only 95% as fast, then RX 9060 XT 8GB should be 5% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "5% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (95% of and 5% 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: (48.2 ÷ 54.3) × 100 = 89%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((54.3 - 48.2) ÷ 48.2) × 100 = 13%
You naturally think: "If RX 9060 XT 8GB is only 89% as fast, then RTX 3070 Ti should be 11% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "13% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (89% of and 13% 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 ÷ 32.8) × 100 = 74%
This shows how much more the faster card performs compared to the slower one.
Example: ((32.8 - 24.4) ÷ 24.4) × 100 = 34%
You naturally think: "If RX 9060 XT 8GB is only 74% as fast, then RTX 3070 Ti should be 26% faster" — but that's incorrect.
The "34% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (74% of and 34% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
