My case is Cooler Master MB511, and motherboard is B450 Tomahawk max.
It can support max height of 165mm for cpu cooler as per specsheet (Specifications)

I am looking for Deepcool AS500. It has good reviews and want to pair it with my R5 3600 (upgrading soon to 5600X)

As per spec sheet, it has height of 164mm - Link with 140mm fan.

So, considering these things, will this cooler fit in my case or will it be troublesome?
 
It should fit, as long as you don't have to move the fan up if it interferes with the RAM, which it doesn't seem to.
 
Ya, from the pics it doesn't seem like it'll overhang the first ram slot even, but I just put it out there. So you're good to go.
 
If you’re buying a cooler that big I bet you’d be better off in case u get a bigger case. Airflow would always be an issue with that kinda obstruction. Cheers.
