Hello,

I had my eye on 2 cpu coolers. The Aorus ATC800 and Deepcool LT720. But since I wasn't looking to overclock anywhere in the near future, I was thinking of getting the ATC800. So my question is:

1. Is it compatible with the motherboard? (assuming all 4 ram slots are filled, to be specific corsair vengeance)
2. If not, what other CPU coolers that do very well and have an aesthetic design to them are compatible with the motherboard?

Thanks in advance
 
Looks compatible to me.

Includes 1700 socket mounting kit.

Your board is 1700 socket.

The more important question is your case wide enough to accommodate the cooler. It is 163mm tall. May or may not fit.

Look at your case specs to find out if it will accept a 163 mm cooler.

I have no idea if the cooler is otherwise OK for your purposes. May be great or terrible.

I have the Endorphin Ultra case from xigmatek. And I think the CPU cooler should be more than enough for my purpose as I'll be gaming and playing the usual popular games like warzone and I will not be overlocking neither will I do any graphic designing on it or anything intense. Just gaming and working.

Well, yeah, of course you're not overclocking because you have a B-series board and Intel B-series boards don't support overclocking. The REAL question is, what CPU are you using because that makes a much bigger difference when choosing the cooler than the motherboard is.

There are very few aftermarket CPU coolers that don't fit the LGA1700 CPU socket and your motherboard won't change that. The thing is that a cooler that works well on an i5 might not work as well on an i7 or i9. It would also depend on the generation because 12th-gen CPUs run a lot cooler than 13th and "14th"-gen so a cooler that works well on an i7-12700 might not cool well enough for an i7-13700.
