A factor of 1000x.
How do I get this number? Bitcoin mining. Compare the hashes per watt of a CPU to the hashes per watt on an ASIC. The difference can be entirely attributed to the efficiency of the CPU circuit design. It is nearly impossible to design better ASIC's because the specification for SHA256 practically is the circuit design.
