Cane Creek or FSA headset?

Posts: 79
I am getting a new headset for my bike, I have a DMR trailstar with Dirt Jumper 3 forks, and i mainly do jumping and 4X, though sometimes I go out on it in the wet.
I have narrowed it down to a Cane Creek Tank Hit(œ39.99) and a FSA Orbit Xtreme(œ47.99). Which one of these two is the longest lasting, or has anyone had one of these and if so what do you think to it?
Thanks

I think it is around a 2002 trailstar with a normal type headset0

FSA pig pro would be a very good option.

Something round here tastes bad. Could be plain old bad taste.
