So I know CPUs have different clock speeds etc. but what exactly makes a CPU faster or better?
Why is e.g. my 5 year old 4-core 3GHz CPU worse than my new 4-/6-core 3GHz one?

It pretty much all in how it’s built, and what architecture it’s built on. The better it’s built, the more power efficient it would be, and the more powerful it may be.
