The USB3 version of the same board may be a useful upgrade to that if you usualy keep much on an external HDD
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/Home/Product/45118/Gigabyte-Motherboard-P55-USB3-LGA1156-Core-i5-i7  this one for example.  More searching would probably find it cheaper and/or the Asus version.

Alternatively you might save yourself a fiver or so by getting the same chipset from a slightly cheaper company (e.g. Asrock http://www.microdirect.co.uk/Home/Product/42183/Asrock-P55M-PRO-Motherboard-LGA1156), unless you want the better overclocking program from Asus.

(I've just been researching new components myself...)
