I spent a little more for wheels manufacturing thread together bottom brackets with angular contact bearings for my most recent two bikes. They require a special splined tool to tighten the flanges, but I found that my ancient 1 tooth tool for installing square taper BBs worked with a little grinding to make better contact. I tried shimano press fit BBs first, but wasn't impressed. These spin nicely with no creaks and no loctite. I lightly greased the contact areas.
