$200/stick of ram with heatsinks that were not properly applied? At that price, you had better hope you just had really bad luck there. Corsair support is pretty good though, but still....

yeah ZZLEE, i am curious as to what type of video you are interested. memory doesn't really strike me as video-genic...if that word has been made up before, i just did.

as for the heat sinks, clearly just one of those things that happens. the second set was much better and looked more like the Dominator heat sinks i have seen in the past. as mentioned, this is the first time i have seen anything but pure flush contact between IC and heat sink; and i have seen a lot of Dominator/DHZ heat sinks in the past couple years.
