The increase compared to my MBPr early 2015 is only 8% for multicore and for single core roughly 2%. Not worth the extra money for this unnoticeable speed difference.
So that would be approx. the same as the i7 13'' 2015?
Plus the extra ports...
Happy to own that one!

For people asking about thermal throttling on the non touch base. My unit while gaming and do a few other things was able to stay at about 23 Watts constantly for several hours.

how does the base 2016 non touchbar bench?

these are on 10.11.6, late 2013 8/256 base CPU 13" and 12" base 2015 (if for whatever reason you can't read the text in the picture)
Geek bench 4,

15% in single core improvements and 19% improvement in multi from late 2013 base to late 2016 midrange or base TB, is pretty weak!

My run of geekbench on the base 13" nt MBP was 3853/7330. There are plenty of results on Geekbench website. Figure the highest result is most accurate. Hard to make it higher than actual, but easy to make it lower by running a bunch of other programs.
