A8R8G8B8 the same format as the video buffer so its basically as good as you can get. A4R4G4B4 isn't bad. Also if you don't need the alpha channel you can choose a format without alpha R5G6B5 is a good format that doesn't have alpha. Any format that doesn't match the video buffer has to be converted before its displayed, but it saves on memory storage and memory bandwidth.
