Which dropper for Giant Anthem?

I'm finally planning on upgrading my weary 2012 Giant Anthem X4 with the addition of a dropper. Want to make sure I get the right thing.

Been eyeing up the Raleigh Rsp plummet as it drops for about £85, comes in 30.9mm and has external routing. Because of the odd seat tube shape I think I'm pretty much limited to 100mm or 125mm travel - I don't know if I really need much more than that anyway.
Big question is if I upped my budget to say £150 or even £200 at a push am I likely to that much more bang for my buck, and if so what should I be looking at?

    They look good for the price.

    I've been looking at that brand x dropper post on chain reaction £125 as I don't want to spend too much on one for my mega

    Another option to look at.

    Yeah I looked at the Brand X one. Think it's internally routed which is no good for me, though I've heard good things otherwise.
