In your case I should go for new system. I advise to avoid i5 25xx because they are very expensive and doesn’t offer higher performance to the similar or lower priced I7.
Here are my suggestion.

Thanks a lot for your help. I just found this test, which claims the i52400 and i5 2500 to be quite a bit faster than the i7 8xx and a tiny bit faster than the i7 9xx:

In Germany a very decent mb for LGA 1155 (Asus P8H67-m evo) is only about 110 Euros, while the i5 2500 is 190 Euros. Thats in total only 30 Euros more than a i5 760 system and a lot less than an i7 8 xx or i7 9xx system.
