Which COBs and color temps to use to compliment the "Blurple"?

Hello everyone

I'm currently using a Mars 600 with CFLs in my area. I'm really looking closely at the QB boards for my space, just waiting for these more evidence. In the meantime I have been looking at my grow and I've determined that 2 COBs would be a great immediate upgrade being that I already have heatsinks and power supplies etc. The question is what would be the better(cheaper) options and exactly what color temps should I choose to complement the 600 for veg and flower?

Thank you sir. The 600 was an impulse buy, after doing very little research in LED tech. Although i'm not experienced enough to fully regret the purchase, I'd like to do what I can to mask its limitations and fill up my 3x3 with usuable light. My plan is to build around the panel starting with 2 COBs, then after harvest in mid summer retrofit the 600 with new tech, whatever that may be at that time. It just seems smarter this way with the tech constantly evolving.
After looking around a while i'm seeing the 4000k Citizen chips out of stock a lot of places. Any suggestions?
