I will build my first PC with this spec
AMD Ryzen 5 1600
Sapphire RX 570 4GB Pulse
8gb Ram
Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3
1TB Hard drive

Should i pick SSD or pick more powerful Graphic Card? SSD that i want is Intel 600p 256gb or should i forget that ssd and change the GPU to rx 580?

Well lets put this a different way.

RX570 vs RX580, is it worth 16% performance increase in games alone: http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-RX-580-vs-AMD-RX-570/3923vs3924 you could overclock you current GPU to bring it up to near enough RX580 speeds.

or

1TB Hrard drive vs Samsung Evo 960 250gb nvme overall system performance upgrade, faster everything, faster Windows boot times, games and apps load faster, in-game levels...

Your graphics card is fine, you'd see the biggest performance increase with the SSD, however I wouldnt go for that one.

Whats you budget, spend an extra £20 and get a Samsung Evo 960 nvme 250gb, you wont regret it, that Intel drive is no faster than a regular SSD.

Take a look here how much faster the Samsung is vs the Intel: http://ssd.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Samsung-960-Evo-NVMe-PCIe-M2-250GB-vs-Intel-600p-Series-NVMe-PCIe-M2-256GB/m200373vsm169054

Totally wrong ! and Totally wrong again.
SSD wont increase performance in any way it will only help reduce pc boot up time,game/application load up time etc.

go with the 580 and if you wish you can get the ssd later also if you cannot live with 10 more secs of pc boot time

Pretty sure that equates to an overall performance increase over a regular hard drive

thanks for correcting me, seems my metric of "performance" is different from yours, by performance i meant more gpu grunt in OPs case

1TB Hrard drive vs Samsung Evo 960 250gb nvme overall system performance upgrade, faster everything, faster Windows boot times, games and apps load faster, in-game levels will load 4 times faster, generally everything faster and no bottleneck: http://ssd.userbenchmark.com/Compare/WD-Blue-1TB-vs-Samsung-960-Evo-NVMe-PCIe-M2-250GB/m186717vsm200373 the regular hard drive here was just used as an example.
