If by "15% ±" you meant 30-50% then we agree. I don't see any individual results (other than GPU-limited games) where the Zen2 is not at least 15% faster, and on most of them it's at least 20% faster, on specific relevant workloads like 7-Zip compression the newer part is almost twice as fast, while drawing 2/3rds the power.

It's ~6% faster for GIMP, <4% faster on AES encoding, ~10% faster on Cinebench ST, ~11% faster on Blender, ~3% faster on Luxmark etc. It does really well on 7zip in particular. If you spend all day unzipping things you should be very interested in Zen2.
Also, the 3100 and 2500X are both 65W.
