I'm about to build a new PC, and this time I wanted to use mATX. I'll get the CM Elite 130, my question is, will a Gigabyte 78LMT USB3 fit inside it?

That's what she said.

The Elite 130 is a mini ITX case so i pretty much doubt it :P You'll have to get a miniITX board rather than a microATX one.

You can tell the difference by the single PCI expansion slot on the miniITX and the 4 of them on the microATX.

If it's a bit too tight, just keep shoving it in until it fits... ;)

 

But actually, no, it won't fit. You'll need a mITX board, and there are no itx am3+ boards. You'll need to get an intel platform for fm2+ for use with that case.
