According to an environmental engineer who's house I worked on years back, you get enough more solar gain from non-low e glass on the south side of your house that the extra heat that you get makes up for the extra heat loss that you will see at night, if you then have insulated window shades you can close you can keep even more of that heat in then even the best window by it's self, if I was building the house from scratch I would install the outside insulated window shutters.
