Lucky if they'll be able to sell em afterwards with that kind of bridge burning ;)

cheers for that, I've got a 1gb set of Corsair XMS Pros which have recently stopped working - I didn't realise they had a lifetime warrenty, I want to test them in another PC first to make sure they are faulty but it looks like I may be giving their support team a call.

Disappointing to see Corsair RAM suffering this kind of thing, haven't yet had any problems with any RAM I've purchased branded as theirs.

This is an IC related issue rather than a Corsair issue, I wonder how long other stories take to creep out from other performance manufacturers

Credit where credit is due - they are looking out for the customers.

This shows unusually competent management at Corsair. Most managers are so thick that they would happily watch their reputation that took many years and cost a lot in R&D and QC to build flushed down the toilet to save money in the short term.
Evidently Corsair values its reputation more than profits in the short term. How refreshing.

HP - you could learn a lot from Corsair.

Good move from them.
