The only big difference on a CPU has been the number of physical cores provided.*
That's contradicted by your 5950x being significantly faster than it's immediate predecessor despite an identical number of cores and very similar clock speeds...

Any list of single-thread benchmarks will show similar generational improvements.
If single-core performance wasn't increasing there'd be less incentive for me to upgrade, but I got a 50% increase going from 9th to 12th gen i9.

Covered by the asterick.
I did consider that, but it's quite a caveat given that it's responsible for up to 20% difference :)
