CONCLUSION

   The MEG CoreLiquid S360 AIO by MSI has always been one of those models i really wanted to test but couldn’t, not until now at least. Still even though almost 2 years have gone by since its unveiling it’s still only second (and by a tiny margin at that) to the recent CLCX 360 model by EVGA in my charts. Unlike the CLCx 360 however the SILENT GALE P12 fans are considerably quieter so leaving out looks (some may like one more than the other) the MEG CoreLiquid S360 seems to be the smartest choice. The 2.4-inch IPS color display is undoubtedly what will attract most people and why not, it does add something special to the looks of the CoreLiquid S360, something only a handful of models currently have in the market. Unfortunately, the lack of ARGB/RGB lighting is something that may drive away some consumers but enthusiasts, serious gamers and even professionals will probably not put much weight at something like that (i wouldn’t). As for the MSI Center software well it’s very easy to navigate and use so not much more i can say about it.

   Almost 2 years since its release the MEG CoreLiquid S360 AIO by MSI retails for USD279.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 284.72Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) a price tag which matches what we see by other similar models. Once again, the lack of ARGB/RGB lighting may not be ideal and the 7th generation pump by Asetek has already been replaced (MSI should eventually release an updated model as well) but what matters is that the MEG CoreLiquid S360 offers excellent cooling efficiency while being almost inaudible and that along with its 2.4-inch IPS screen and the 60mm VRM fan are plenty for our Platinum Award.
