Which BB to buy

I'm looking to replace the OE BB on my stumpy FSR elite. What do you guys use and can you recommend one? I currently have a GXP fitted but the drive side bearing is starting to rumble, i stripped it off the bike last night and cleaned it and re-greased it which has made it slight difference but still noticeable. Non drive side is still very smooth.

I dont want to spend the earth on a new one unless it will make a huge difference and last a shed load longer than say a £30-£50 BB, most of my riding is on single track with some DH involved but not extreme.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers Chris
