I'm only starting to learn about CPUs so I was wondering if the intel core i5 6200u is really better than the core i5 3210m since the latter seems to have a higher frequency?
It would be obvious that the newer, more expensive model is better and faster than the older one but I don't know how to interpret the rest of the specs so I prefer to ask, thanks for the help.

Here's the link for the specs of both products:

Solution
They probably perform pretty similarly, based on the older chip running higher clocks but the newer chip getting more work done per clock cycle.
