Intel i7-3770 Passmark Score (~6yrs old, was ~$320): 9300 [1]

AMD Ryzen 7 2700 Passmark Score (<1yr old, ~$290): 15382 [2]

That's a 65% improvement in benchmark performance. So not the "doubling" trend I was used to growing up, but not insignificant.

If you look at the smaller print on those two pages, the Ryzen 7's single core performance is a little under the I7's, meaning if your workload doesn't take advantage of the extra cores then this only roughly an equal move.
