Simple question,

Upgrading from my system in sig, which would you recommend as an upgrade for a purely gaming and web-browsing system?

I am trying to build the system as cheap as possible but will go for 8700 if people feel it's worth it.

So far,

Asus Prime z370 - £109
Corsair 16gb 3200 MHz £197

i5 8400 £161

or

i7 8700 £289

£467 vs £595

Gaming @ 3440x1440p

Thank you.
