MSI MEG CORELIQUID E15 360 Cooling Performance Test
Case & Components
MSI's new MEG CORELIQUID E15 360 AIO cooler features a 6.67-inch, 110° curved 2K AMOLED display for easy system monitoring and personalization. It also uses an EZ Conn single-cable design to simplify installation and cable management.
Beyond looks and ease of installation, cooling performance is the key measure of any AIO cooler. In this test, we paired the MEG CORELIQUID E15 360 with current mainstream AMD and Intel processors and ran Cinebench R23 and AIDA64 FPU stress tests to check its cooling performance across processors with different TDPs. The results are meant as a reference for DIY builders.
Performance Test Results"
We tested processors from AMD Ryzen 9 and Ryzen 7, as well as Intel Core Ultra and Core i7, covering 65W to 200W TDP ranges.
The results show that the MEG CORELIQUID E15 360 maintains stable cooling performance even under heavy loads. For example, with the 200W TDP AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition, temperatures reached 74°C and 73°C. The Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus maintained 76.5°C and 83.5°C respectively, showing reliable thermal performance.
