Will this go on an Asus Prime B450M A? null

It will fit into the AM4 socket of your Prime B450M A(needs a bios update to recognize), but that motherboard doesn’t have adequate VRM to power it under load, and it will get super hot. I would recommend moving up to a B550 or X570 with robust VRM/heatsinks, or go with another CPU instead.
