Quality issues Corsair

I don't want to talk about this, but Corsair is going downhill. I've been buying their RAM for years and haven't had any performance or reliability issues until the last 3 years or so. During that time I returned 6 savesets. Some of them lasted less than 6 months before returning. Corsair is usually pretty easy to deal with when it comes to returns, but the fact remains I have no ram sticks and no returns. I've seen this happen when over-volting or even overclocking, but I've always run them at stock voltages and clock speeds on mid-range motherboards, good seasonal power supplies, and an APC UPS to provide quality power. I just don't understand why they don't work other than lowering the quality. I'd like to think it was just a bad batch, but I have friends with similar issues. I hope Corsair can fix the problems and win me back as a customer.
