Case Question

Guys im confused. See im buying this Thermaltake Xaser Case, but i just noticed that it only supports Extended ATX motherboards. First of all what the hell does that mean, and 2nd will my ASUS P5GD1 motherboard that im buying fit in it? Or do i have a problem. Heres the link to the case:

It should fit any ATX motherboard then. E-ATX, ATX, and micro ATX. I believe E-ATX motherboards are usually server boards, since the case is so big, it fits them (12" x 13" I believe), but it also fits the smaller ATX's.

It basically means it has "extended" ATX compatibilities. More ATX compatibilities than other cases, or larger server boards. If there was any kind of ATX compatibility issues, the reviews would definitely reflect that.
