I verified whether a Noctua cooler would work but it costs significantly more than the Arctic Freezer 34 eSports Duo. I’m not planning to use liquid cooling either. Since your case is white, the white model of the freezer would fit perfectly. I reviewed the benchmarks and found the Arctic Freezer 34 to be quite reasonable for my expectations.
Front fans connect through a 3-in-1 splitter, while the remaining three use MF120 Halo. The daisy chain of Halo units can be extended to include the front fans via the splitter. Adding this setup would allow powering six fans using just one ARGB header. There should be no significant power loss. Regarding the B550 Aorus Elite, it's not addressed in this context.
Consider your requirements carefully when selecting a motherboard.
