Hi
This is the first time I'm going to build a PC and I really got confused about PSUs

Here's my build
Asus b250m prime plus
Intel g4650
Ram 4gb × 1
WD 1tb HDD
128 gb SSD × 1

(Still didn't choose which SSD and ram brand I would buy)

Any advise how to choose a good PSU for this?
I don't have access to latest known brands and hardware(heck i barely could find a g4650 everywhere I looked had g4400) so a general guide would be usefull.i mean how can I find out how much watt power do I need?

For a GPU-less system with an entry-level CPU, even 150W would be enough. However, decent quality power supplies are few and far between below 450W or so. Almost anything manufactured by Seasonic is at least 'good' quality so if you can find one with at least a 250W rating and don't intend to add a GPU in the future, you should be fine. If you want some headroom for possible future upgrades, then aim for at least 450W. CoolerMaster is one of the more widespread brands internationally and the CX/CXM 450/550 from 2017 are considered pretty decent if you can get them - don't get confused with the older Corsair CX/CXM 430/520/620W which are of passable quality.
