I'm not using any LED driver, just wiring the LEDs up to the computer
power supply, so I don't have that much control. I just need to know
which would be closer to UT orange, the 585 nm "Amber" LEDs or the 605
nm "Orange" LEDs. I checked again and I'm saving about $2 by going with
the "Orange" kind, but I would rather have a color closest to the light
UT orange. Thanks,

Why not get one of each, and look?

Good Luck!
