What should I upgrade first?

Definitely the gpu.  The pentium won't bottleneck it and you can upgrade to kaby lake i7 much later in the future.

Upgrade the GPU and an SSD maybe for boot.

 

Depending on the GPU you get, your CPU might bottleneck it, so you should probably get a better CPU soon.

 

GTX 1050 Ti isn't too bad for the price ($130): https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Support-Graphics-04G-P4-6253-KR/dp/B01MF7EQJZ/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1497194539&sr=1-1&keywords=gtx+1050+ti

Also, question out of curiosity. Does Argentina have the same very high import costs like Brazil does?

Yes, %50 import tax and the only tech things we're producing here are TVs, monitors and phones.

Thats true for you Americans. I payed that SSD $150 (cause I live in Croatia and there everything is overpriced) and I don't regret it.

Alright those ones are pretty good. I'd go for Adata since it has most storage of them all. Not overpriced like the above mentioned Samsung.

Then don't overgeneralize 

And samsung's 850 evo 250 GB isn't overpriced. I have it and my pc boots in 5 secs which is pretty impressive for sata ssd.

You didn't say it's not overpriced in Croatia, but it is in the US....

Well, Croatia is in Europe. Argentina is in South America, much worse.

@deXxterlab97 I just found these: http://www.avexir.com/product/s100.html (240GB ver.) at $130-140, depending on the LED color (yes, ridiculously stupid), are they any good?

They just have flashy lights, apart from that, they are bad in performance and in price

I would go with a GTX 1060 3gb. I have seen these on amazon for about $170. It will not bottleneck the g4560. I have the G4560 with a 1050 TI and i can play all AAA titles mostly high settings with 50-60fps. Been Playing Star Wars Battlefront, TitanFall 2, Friday the 13th and have no issues with smooth frame rate. Now when you say light editing I think you'll be fine. If you start editing 1440p or 4k then you will need a better CPU
