Yes, the core clock speed matters too. A mainstream CPU like the Ryzen 3900X may advertise 4.6 GHz, but thats only in 1 core scenario. When using all 12 cores, its typically 4.2 GHz on each core when the task is maxed out. Thats why the Intel CPUs still are better in software using only 1 core or few. But it stops there. The new AMD CPUs support higher RAM frequencies and support pcie 4.0. And taking price and power consumption into consideration, AMD is the new king if you want a setup for both gaming and video creations.
