Z78? No such Intel chipset as a Z78. Do you mean Z68? Z77? Or Z87?

Z68 boards use socket 1155. Z77 boards use socket 1155. Z87 boards use socket 1150. You can search on CPU coolers that are compatible with socket 1155 or 1150.

Even easier, all the Intel 115x socket processors (1155, 1156, 1150, 1151), have the same spacing of the mounting holes. So any CPU cooler compatible with any of those CPU sockets.

Unless your board does not have one of these chipsets. Z78 does not exist.

Besides that, the size of your PC case, how tall your memory is (potential clearance issue), the CPU you are using, are you over clocking, your budget, among other things are all factors that will determine your choice.

We have no idea about any of these things.
