Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H is actually good enough.
I have never bother about the size ATX or mATX, if I have an ATX case.
If mATX size is the reason to get a new one...well... I don't really see that as a good reason.
The only problem I see on that board is if you wanna XFire, since it has only 1 PCIex16.
If you don't plan to XFire, you might just keep the board.

BTW :
1. What is your price range for the new board
2. Any special features you want or need?
3. Plan to OC?
4. Plan to XFire?

Hey no plans for Xfire budget is £90, i guess if all the parts would fit on this board and i can add extrat 4 Gb in the futher won't be a problem.

No XFire?
You can keep your Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H.
It has 4 Slot of DDR3 RAM. You have a 2x2 GB kit, so...you should be able to add another 2 RAM sticks.
All your current parts can fit to the Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H.

But if you are still considering of having XFire...you might just exchange it....witha XFire-able board
