Have to reconsider this. Reading Lords of the Sith, and Cybernetic Vader does indeed augment himself physically with his Force Powers. Given that I can't see why Cybernetic Vader wouldn't be at least as good as ROTS Anakin in Sabers. In fact he might even be superior in Disney Canon.
Well he kind of has to for his fighting style. I can't imagine him moving at the speed he does with the strength he does without some form of augmentation.

Strength? I don't see why Vader wouldn't have more physical strength than Anakin tbh.

He's crushed blasters, hurled Kanan like a ragdoll, and a few other feats thus far.

Well before I was thinking it was mostly his cybernetics, with a bit of aid from the force. Because mechanical limbs can't exactly have force enhanced abilities (or so I thought).
But yeah it's made clear the Force does augment his speed, just like a non mechanical force sensitive.
Strength was never really in question. Of course Vader is superior there.
But in the old canon it was kind of a given (especially from Lucas's words) that Mechanical Vader wasn't as good as Anakin in Sabers. Probably due to having less mobility, and relying on his cybernetics too much.
However Disney Canon seems to be suggesting Vader > Anakin in pretty much every way including Sabers. Even if he's ROTS Anakin's equal in Sabers (when he beat down Count Dooku), add in his Beastly TK then there shouldn't be much of a power difference between Vader and Sidious (In Theory).

I think one storyline is that Vos defeats Vader, Vos becomes sidious new apprentice, while Vader schemes with Ashoka to regain his status by Sidious side

Vader wins. ROTS anakin would beat DD vos if he went into his “zone” like he did Dooku. And Vader is supposed to be more powerful than that. Vader 9/10 at minimum.
