WILL THIS INSTALL ON A MSI 970A-G36 9 series AM3+ motherboard ?

No it will not. That motherboard is not designed for a NVME ssd.

Is this good for booting Windows on?

After installing this in my Linux box, boot time dropped from over a minute to less than twenty seconds. I don't know firsthand about Windows, but I would guess the improvement might be comparable.
