Is the MSI MAG B460M Bazooka motherboard compatible with the Intel stock CPU cooler?

Zucc

I look forward to purchasing the MSI MAG B460M Bazooka motherboard. When I checked the motherboard I could see several electrical components around the CPU socket. Do I have to go for another CPU cooler if I buy that board? Or is the Intel stock CPU cooler compatible with this?

Stock cooler will work just fine. None of those components will interfere.
