So i have a really bad system right now its a q6600 4gb ram and a gtx 750ti witha crappy old case and a really bad powersupply.I have arround 350 euros to spend and i came up with that upgrade 

-PENTIUM DUAL CORE G4560 3.50GHZ LGA1151   60 euros

-GIGABYTE GA-B250M-DS3H RETAIL 80 euros

-HYPERX HX421C14FB2/8 8GB DDR4 2133MHZ HYPERX FURY BLACK 65 euros

-XFX TS SERIES 80PLUS BRONZE 650W 85 euros

-CORSAIR CARBIDE SERIES SPEC-01 47 euros 

I will keep my gtx 750 ti and get something better later on

Ok so i know if i was somewhere else i would be able to get an i5 in there but in my country and i5 7500 is like 270 euros.So i think this upgrade is the best for right now because a friend can get me an i5 from germany later on.Also i wanted to buy a new case and a good power supply to kinda "future proof" my build because the case i have right now is really bad and my psu is really bad to.So is that a good upgrade?

Looks good, maybe see if there's a different case in that price range as the spec isn't very good (from personal experience), but other than that it looks good.

I would go for 500W or 450W PSU with a higher efficiency rating. You don't realy need 650W

psu prices in greece are all over the place like that psu is 20 euroes cheaper than a 360w 80+ gold from seasonic so i think thats the best i can get for that price.Or else is the xfx xt 500 good for this system but with like an i5 7500 and a gtx 1060? or should igo with the 650?

500W would be enough (with lots of headroom) for a system like that.
