    Default Differences between resistors?

    I'm going through a build and I have a question. I am doing a NBv3 with Blue/RoyalBlue/White. For the blue LED's I don't know what the difference between this .5ohm 3w vs this .47ohm .5w resistor. Does it matter? Will one yield better performance?

    Thanks,
    -Garrett

    Size. One is huge, one is not. More power dissipation = bigger resistor.
