Help Difference between Novatech and Epson?

What is the difference between the two? And can one be used rather than the other?

Let me google that for you

Those are the two different screens that have been used in the EVOs. You don't get to pick one. Whichever one your phone comes with is what you get. There used to be a bunch of raging debates about which one is better. As far as I'm concerned, if you've only ever used one EVO, you'll never notice, especially since HTC removed the 30 fps cap from all phones.
 
Maybe I wasn't clear enough. What is physically different with them? I am buying a new LCD and want to make sure I am buying the correct one.
 
I was curious, so I read up a little bit - the user forum at ifixit.com has a lot to say to about pricing, and whether you should consider replacing anything else, etc.

RepairUniverse.com - like so many others - is selling a screen, but makes no distinction so far as I can tell as caring about the original.

You might try those sources, meanwhile, in case it's the least bit helpful, here's a how-to video and the link for their LCD replacement - you might contact them and ask, and ask about their assurance / return policies, that sort of thing (no, I'm not affiliated, I just understand your pain). I'll post back if I come across where to look for identifying info on the LCD itself.
