Can anyone recommend a CPU cooler that will fit this spec...

Case mid tower atx tower with a microatx ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 9by9inch motherboard with a a3+ socket and amd fx8350 CPU.

my tower case size 16.5 inch(D) by 17 inch(H) by 7 inch(W)

PSU 500W

Thanks for the help:)

Check your case specs so you know the maximum cooler height supported. Next check frostytech.com and it gives all heatsink reviews so you can choose based on noise level, cooling performance, and what is available form the store you wish to purchase form.

Solution
On that board you are honestly going to want a downblower rather than a tower cooler.

Fairly weak vrm set with no heatsinks means it will likely throttle if you dont have any form of airflow on the board itself.

What's your location & budget ??
