What's the best LCD panel to add to a RepRap with RAMPS?

What’s the best LCD panel to add to a RepRap with RAMPS?

I would say the ordinary 4x20, since I have seen a few having speed issues with the graphical one.

I’m thinking a complete panel with buttons and SD card reader. The ViKi LCD looks good, but are there any other alternatives?

It’s not quite as fancy as the ViKi though.

Michael, What do you mean by speed issues?

I have two viki lcds. I like them a lot. I used to use a parallel LCD with encoder but replaced it with the viki.

@Wolfmanjm , does it work out of the box with RAMPS with Marlin?

Yes current Marlin supports Viki, as does Repetier. I currently use it on Marlin/Ramps.
