LOL crome bleh...

The higher the temp the lower the light output. 4300k is the highest output.... 5 or 6 is a good compromise.

4300-5300 if you care about maximum output. Any higher you'll just be decreasing light.

Anything above 6k is stupid. It really limits the light output and is dangerous. Please dont be stupid and risk other peoples lives because you think it looks cool which it doesnt
