Intel: i3-8350 or i5-8400?

[Quartz]

It's looking like I will need to replace this system. At the low end, should I go for the i3-8350 or the i5-8400? The former is faster per core; the latter has more cores.

I mainly run Google Chrome and games.

The Ryzen 5 2600 will be with us very soon.

Ryzen is not an option as my CPU cooler won't fit.

Although with the Ryzen 2 coming out in a few weeks, I would instead go for the Ryzen 2 2600 ($199), with 6 cores and 12 threads.

My CPU cooler - the Nofan CR-95 - will not fit Ryzen motherboards. I am not willing to give up silence.
