which AMD processors are most closely related to which Intel processors.

This depends mostly on performance. UserBenchmark is a decent site to look up the performance differences between different CPUs.

 

Price and features also come into play.

There is no one chart to indicate what CPU is equivalent to what, because it will entirely depend on your use case what is better.

E.g. if I were to compare a Ryzen 2600X and an i5 9600K in Davinci Resolve (editing program), the 2600X would absolutely demolish the i5, because the i5 might have a ton more single core performance; Davinci Resolve uses all cores/threads in rendering (which the 2600X has twice the threads) which would make it outperform the i5.

In gaming, the 9600K would be better and in some video editing use cases the iGPU of the i5 will help too.

 

Just like that, it isn't simply "X is equal to Y", there are many "well, but, if" etc. attached to that.

 

In very general though, you can compare Ryzen 3 to i3, Ryzen 5 to i5 and Ryzen 7 to i7. Even still though, there are one, two or three CPU's in each Ryzen/i number thing.

I looked online and couldn't seem to find precisely what I was looking for

It's impossible to get what you're looking for.

 

CPU 'X' might perform the same as CPU 'Y' in a certain workload, but CPU 'X' may perform better than CPU 'Y' in a different workload.

I've just switched from an FX-6300 to a dual Xeon E5570. No difference in gaming performance but I've been using the machine and forgot I left prime95 running 16 threads as it's making almost no difference to general performance. The FX was slow as buggery running Prime, but has slightly higher per core performance due to clock speeds.

As others have said, it depends on the application.

 

Generally speaking Ryzen 5 2600 and i7-8700k are your best do-it-all chips right now.
