Looking at this
260W 288/304/312 pcs Quantum boards x 2 LED Kit

For a 32in x 32in tent

What color temp should I get ? 2700 3000? Also is this a good fit for my space?

Oh I'm currently using a viparspectra r900 in the same space right now..would it do better or extremely better?

Either is fine. 3000K would by my choice if picking between the two spectrums.
Ok good fit for the space you think? Website said it will do a 3x3 in flower..was thinking possibly vipar with just veg switch on for veg and then maybe the 2700k I could switch out for flower? If that makes sense?

Are you saying 260w kit x 2 so 520w total? If yes it will blow away your r900 blurple with probably twice as much yield
if only 260w my guess would be similar result for much less wattage..

I also suggest 3000k over the 2700k if youre using it for both flower and veg but if only used for flower than you may be better with 2700k.. that being said id use the quantum for veg as well.. ive used 3000k board for both veg and flower with great result so far..

Edit : your vipar with just veg switch on is most likely not enough light for your space except for the early days once in real veg if your using your blurple over the quantum then use both switch on imo

Do not buy Chines boards... I have a bad experience with different companies.
With taxes and shipping, u will end with a mediocre product, with no warranty, not dream on S6 and for only a couple of bucks less...
Go 3000k with HLG boards or strips DiY build F-series from Samsung or Vesta...
Go here:

and look for DIY options for a 3x3 space... u can build a nice light for around 380$ / 270W at the wall
replacing 600wMH/HPS
(all included)

I'm a chef, and I'm a noob in electricity... my first strip build was so funny and with no problems at all... so there are no worries because is kid simple. Especially if u follow instructions of ledgardener.
