Depends on what benchmark or program you are running but I'd say a 3400+ to a 3500+ is a good fight for it.

An Athlon "3600+", roughly. Although now that Intel is no longer emphasising clock rates, it's all pretty irrelevant. Check out various benchmarking sites, such as AnandTech and Tom's Hardware Guide for an overview.

probably a 3500+ for s754 would be about equal in performance while a 3500+ venice (s939) would give it a good whoopin.

A 3500+ would be about the same.
Do you have an Intel 3.6 already? If so, I'd wait for the M2 CPU to come out before buying an AMD.
