So I Have finally saved up money to upgrade PC's ram.
I went for this Ram its 16GB(RN I have 8GB) And runs at 3600MHz
My Cpu is Ryzen 5 2600 and my motherboard is Asus prime b450-a.
Will the ram run at 3600MHz on this machine?

While anything is possible, the odds of being able to get a 2600 to run 3200MHz is a challenge, let alone 3600MHz. You should (hopefully) be able to hit 2933MHz without much issue, but getting 3200MHz to run is just silicon lottery, and any more than that is next to impossible. As someone who had a 2700X, I got lucky so I could just set it at 3200MHz and it worked without issue, but trying to overlock it anywhere beyond that just didn't work.
