Is it backwards compatible with PCI 3?

Yes, PCIe is both forwards and backwards compatible. For example, this gen 4 NVMe SSD will work in a gen 3 PCIe slot, and a gen 3 NVMe SSD would also work in a gen 4 PCIe slot. Do note however that speeds will typically be reduced in doing this as Gen 3x4 can only go up to 4000MB/s or 4GB/s. This will NOT AFFECT this particular drive as it caps out at 3500MB/s anyways, but most Gen 4 NVMe SSD's start at around 5000MB/s now.

Is this ssd qlc or tlc?

It could be both QLC or TLC. The 1TB I just got is QLC. Here is chart of model number, NAND type, and country of production. 002.A00G - TLC - TW 002.A01G - TLC - TW, CN 005.A00G - TLC - CN 007.A00G - ??? - TW 009.A00G - QLC - CN 012.A00G - QLC - TW 013.A00G - QLC - TW 019.A00G - QLC - TW

Is this compatable with asus tuf b450m-plus gaming?

Yes but at PCIe 3.0 aka 3x4 data transfer speed
