Seagate also has single TB platter drives, but I forget which ones.

Older chipset and Z77 is better overall. There is nothing really wrong iwth it though so it is not really a waste of money per se, but none of those boards I would really pick either. Although, if you were to get like a P67 Sabertooth,...

You have it correct. As long as you have it set to -10C offset, then you are getting the right temp. By default, CoreTemp does 100C for TjMax on the older chips, thus it has to be adjusted accordingly. If you are getting 100C with proper...

Which is modular?

Options > Adjust offsets

Core temp sometimes needs its TjMax adjusted properly for your processor. For the Q6600, you would set your offset for -10 since the TjMax is 90C. That is, unless it is a B3 stepping, then it would be 80C (so -20) for the offset.

Both are great power supplies, so it is really your choice. I would go with the rosewill. Little cheaper, but still a good solid power supply.

Ultras are crap. End of story.
