Exclamation Need help in determining the best ROM

ok, so I just rooted my epic tonight and now am looking for those of you who have tested and retested all the roms out there. I am looking for one that is fast, efficient on the battery and has plenty of bells and whistles without any of the sprint apps that come with stock.

Legendary Rom RC2 with the 3.0 samurai kernel......
And flash a theme if you'd like bells and whistles. 3.0 has cpu ocable to 1.5 and gpu oc'd to 300 or 250 or stock if you want and there's a fps unlock on two of them. My highest quad with the two was 4504 and the two compliment each other very well but you will get some opionated replies id say try em all and see which works best to your liking.

All the roms are slightly different, try them all!

Legendary rom is what I'm running, stable, and everything works

Ever since I picked up my Epic at launch I've missed Cyanogen from my G1. While it isn't perfect in its current state I can't imagine using anything else. It's responsive, it's lean, and it extended my battery life by about four hours when I installed it. There's a list that doesn't work at the moment (911 emergency calls, 4G, several video codecs including Youtube HQ, video recording) but the things that work are fantastic.

I was about to jump to Verizon for a different device, but with the breath that Cyanogen gave my Epic I'm going to ride it out.

I've been using CleanGB since Build13, and have been loving the stability and battery life. I am currently running Build 17 with the Talkback Fix (which is, in effect, Build 18)...

Another CM7 vote here, combined with nubecoder's 0.0.2 kernel. You will want the CM7 1124 WPA fix version.
