No, that motherboard is for Intel 8th and 9th gen(LGA1151). You'd need an AM4 board. B550 or X570. There's some 450 and 470 boards that will support that 5950x, but they might not be completely up to it. 

Ideally, you'd be going for a Tier A or above motherboard.

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.

Ok, thanks for the answer but I want to know also if Ryzen 9 5900X is worth it more than Ryzen 9 5950X in price or in general since rn I use I7 8700

What do you do that will warrant the extra 4 cores/8 threads on a 5950X? 5900X is a good all-rounder between the 5800X and 5950X.
