Anyone have an RMA contact for returning a bad memory module directly to
Samsung?

Nope, not the answer. Just making your thread look busy. If you get an
answer i'll try the same. I have a dead Corsair module and Corsair
tells me that I have to be the original purchaser to be able to RMA
it, otherwise zilch. Lifetime warranty, but zilch. They're evil.

If I'm not mistaken, Corsair RAM is effectively rebadged memory chips
with shiny heatspreaders. There is a possibility, albeit scant, that
you can deduce the true manufacturer (often Samsung or Winbond for such
"generic" modules) and appeal to them for a replacement.

Incidentally, how do Corsair identify the original purchaser? Do they
track the chips by serial number? Do they demand a receipt from their
own online store?
