How might I be able to figure out if my MOBO can fit in this?

I've been looking to see if my MOBO can fit into here and can't find the answer. My knowledge on motherboards is near 0 and I'd like some help.

My MOBO: http://www.asus.com/Motherboard/M5A88M/#specifications

Case I'm buying: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147107


Would she fit?

I looked into the ATX on my MOBO and it said a few things regarding it but I'd like to know if it would fit. Thanks.

Supertoaster:
yeah it will.

Xrain:
The spec you are looking for is "Form Factor"

The mother board is uATX (u = micro) aka microATX
The case supports ATX and microATX so it will fit.

The ATX standards from largest to smallest goes:

Extended ATX, ATX, MicroATX

Generally the larger standard will support the smaller, so a Extended ATX will fit both ATX and MicroATX; an ATX will support MicroATX, and MicroATX well... somtimes they fit MicroITX (even smaller) but other than that, that is it.

Why go with a ATX case for a MicroATX mobo.


Go for something like this size if you are getting that small of a mobo.
