It kinda depends on the case you choose. Personally, I have a Zalman CNPS-7000 AlCu in an Aspire QPack. It fits with plenty of room to spare.

Take a look at that link to see some pics of stuff installed in the QPack.

I don't have any experience with the Aria, so I can't be any help there.
 
For the ARIA the Zalman 7000s are good. I don't think any of the Thermalright's can fit, but probably the best would be the Swiftech MCX6400-V.

X-QPack you have alot more options and I know you can get a Thermalright XP-90 in there with a little case trimming.
 
the cooler master x dream iii is really nice with a led, right now i have a socket 478 which barely fits, once i removed the fan guard ontop. :cool:
