The i5 6500 paired with a gtx 1060 3gb will perform better in games.
But, if you go with the i5 6500 platform you might not have a path to current CPU upgrades in the near future.
The i5 9400F is a current CPU and that platform (the motherboard) will allow you to upgrade to current faster CPUs.
Ultimately, it will be up to you, but if it was me I would sell the GTX 1050 ti and go with the newer Intel 9 series platform.
