fwiw

do you work for corsair

their coolers are fine, their memory is fine, its just that i always buy the shit that has lots of reviews and mostly positive results, and the shit that has promo codes and rebates and so on usually is second-rate and just needs to be cleared off the shelves

not that it's all that different and i maybe will never notice, but i also don't have to worry about Q/A, differences between the flagship product that everybody likes, and the slightly-worse version, which doesn't get as closely inspected
