Endorsing the the comment below. It depends. But note: higher level gear give you more boosts, not just higher stats, but more different stats for each item. Don't make fancy 20 gear. Get to House 30 right away,  and once you have T9's get to 40 immediately.

For instance  a level 25 Stark piece has 2 stats, a 20 has 3 and a 40 has 4.

And of course newer gear is typically much better than older gear.
