Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
Yes the cooler should be good to go for the processor. Might want to brush up on the rest of your specs by mentioning the motherboard's make and model as well as the case that you'll be working with.

I can cnfirm that this beast (DeepCool AK620) is enough. I have 5.5GHz @ 1.350v and everything goes flawlessly. Except extreme stress test like cinebench, prime95 a AVX tests, because its really hard to cool. But if for gaming and normal working its perfectly fine. I have this cooler so i can confirm that.

It is always nice to see a confirmation by actual users like that from quadrax.
13th gen can run hot, but it is built to do so.
The better your cooler, the better the performance before the processor reaches it's 100c thermal limit.
With a nice cooler like the AK620 you will do very well.
Heat issues are overstated for gamers:

Tom's Hardware recently reviewed a variant of it on an i7-13700K: https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/deepcool-ak620-digital/2
They noted a maximum cooling of 233W, which is lower than the PL2 boost level. So while you won't be able to push the CPU to its specified limit, it only matters if you're hitting it with a multithreaded workload

yes that cooler is a good fit.
I really think the peerless 120 is virtually the same for half the cost and I think its easier to install.
