I have three of LF II 240's in the affected time span. I pulled the first one yesterday and replaced it with a LF II 280 that's outside the problematic gasket dates. I also used that as an opportunity to install a Thermalright LGA 1700 anti-bending bracket on the Z690/12600K rig I pulled the 240 from. Now I have to take a picture of the bottom of the pump to show the production code plus provide proof of purchase to get the free repair kit. I also have 240's on a X99 and X79 that are in the affected window. I really don't have the energy to pull the pumps just to get pictures of the production dates but I don't have a choice. Amazon sent me a notice (I already knew anyway) a few days ago because I bought those three from them.
I now buy my Arctic things off their excellent Ebay site that has B stock for 1/2 price with the regular full warranty. They also sell A stock on there and it comes directly from Arctic unlike Amazon stock that may be months old. The LF II 420 I bought as B stock recently was exactly like new, no idea why it was B stock plus it wasn't part of the problem batch.
