I have not seen any practical advantage of the Epson (V5) over the Apollo (V3) controller, with the exception of the number of gray levels. This may be because all vendors started out with the Apollo, so they have not taken full advantage of the Epson. As Lo Zeno points out, the Apollo can do partial screen updates (the Epson can in principle do several simultaneously).
