The second set of Hypers I got were in the plastic retail packaging and have been great ever since. They run 2000 7-8-7-20-1T or 1700 7-7-7-18-1T all with 1.66v. So far so good. If you can, I suggest you get them from newegg (if you're in the US or CA) as it makes the RMA process 10x easier.
Mine came in the plain white cardboard box as well. I will be RMA'ing them to the e-tailer (komplett.no) instead of going through Corsair. Komplett has been really good to me in the past on RMA's, so I hope it won't take too long. I also hope these are not anything like the D9 GMH's. I went through a TON of RMA's on those over the years.
