I bought a Core i5 2500K and a Coolermaster Hyper 212 Plus CPU cooler the other day. Both items shipped from the retailer in a single box packed with styrofoam peanuts.
When I opened the shipping box, I saw that the Hyper 212 Plus package had been crushed. I opened it up and the heat pipes were actually physically bent. I will RMA the CPU cooler.
The processor box however did not look damaged. I popped the CPU in and it runs IntelBurnTest successfully for 20 passes.
Do you think I should RMA the CPU? I'm kind of worried now that maybe it got damaged somehow since the CPU cooler was so badly smashed.
