More cache or more GHZ or more cores?

None of the above, because it's not that simple. For example, in many real-world use-cases, a 5ghz AMD FX 9590 (which has 8 cores, 8MB of L3 cache) is slower than an Intel Pentium G4560 which comes in at 3.5ghz with 2 cores and 3MB of cache. The CPU's architecture is far more important than core count or clockspeed.

Which CPUs are you comparing exactly?

EDIT: You edited your post. It depends on the specific chips, but editing is generally pretty parallel. More cores are probably better than slightly faster cores, all else being equal.

Can you please list a budget? Nothing is as simple as that when comparing.

I highly doubt you'll edit faster on a Pentium than on a FX9590

For editing usually the more cores/threads the merrier
But you can't fully disband cache and clockspeed

A budget would be helpful

You will need to list your motherboard type before anyone can suggest a CPU.

When I typed my post, OP hadn't yet editing anything into their original post about editing.
