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 4070 Super FPS ÷ RX 9070 FPS) × 100
Example: (147.6 ÷ 159.1) × 100 = 93%
"X% faster"

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

Formula: ((RX 9070 FPS - RTX 4070 Super FPS) ÷ RTX 4070 Super FPS) × 100
Example: ((159.1 - 147.6) ÷ 147.6) × 100 = 8%
Why Someone Might Get Confused:

You naturally think: "If RTX 4070 Super is only 93% as fast, then RX 9070 should be 7% faster" — but that's incorrect.

The "8% faster" is measured against the slower card, not against the faster one. So both numbers (93% of and 8% faster) are mathematically correct at the same time.
