💦 MSI MAG CORELIQUID 360R: Advanced Rotatable Blockhead Design with 360mm Radiator and Triple 120mm aRGB PWM Fans - AIO CPU Liquid Cooler Review

This AIO works great and cools my Ryzen 3600XT. AIO was very easy to install and looks great. I control it with Asus AI Suite 3, even in "ultra quiet" mode, the AIO keeps my CPU at an average temperature of 34 degrees Celsius when surfing the web. A very quiet shutdown allows me to play Call of Duty Warzone while keeping temperatures around 40 degrees Celsius. The only issue I have with this AIO is the included fans; they are remarkably loud. However, if you find this to be a problem in the…

Let's start with the good: I LOVE how the pump is built into the cooler. Not only does it not make a mess, it works as advertised and dampens noise and vibration, which I really like. However, fans have been a big disappointment so far. They move air well, look good and the airflow is pretty quiet. BUT the fan motor/bearing assembly makes a surprising amount of noise. They sound like old-school brushed DC motors, while I was expecting something much more modern (brushless with liquid bearings…

**Note. I installed it in a push-pull configuration as an air intake on the front of a NZXT H700 case with 3 additional 120mm Thermaltake ARGB fans (TT-1225). See pictures. **MSI has developed a massive heatsink with a built-in pump. The pump is decent and does its job well, although most of the time it's not audible. It cools the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X processor. There were significant temperature improvements over the stock Wraith Prism cooler that comes with the CPU. The processor overheated with

The cooler looks great and is easy to install. It worked perfectly for an hour and then the fans stopped working. I unplugged the fan cable from the CPU location on the mobo and moved it to a different fan location to see if that fixed the situation. The wire felt warm, but I didn't attach much importance to that at the time. Even when the fan header was moved to a different location on the mobo, the fans still didn't work. I believe I connected the fans directly from the PSU to the power…

Purchased September 2020. I originally set it up with In/Out below and it worked pretty well. The Ryzen 3950 was idling from mid to 30s. I just installed an EVGA RTX 3080 FTW3 and had to place the tubes on top. The processor is currently idling at 60 and all fans are running at maximum. I re-pasted the processor thinking the paste wasn't working due to movement. Back in the mid 60's. Now I think there is not enough coolant in the radiator. The pump is now on top of the radiator. The graphics…

This is my first AIO in 20 years as an enthusiast. Nothing I've bought with air could tame an overclocked AMD FX 8350 @ 4.8GHz and I've had a Wraith Stealth RGB and a Core Frozr L. They were good at stock 4.1 max but just couldn't get past 4.2 Cut mustard. My job was to prove that this incredible processor is a great alternative to the absolutely disgusting state that's happening with the new Ryzen 5xxx and Nvidia RTX. I wanted to prove that I could get close to the same MS Flight Simulator…

The first thing to say is that I did not build a slot machine, mine is designed for creating multimedia. So it doesn't always run at full capacity, but has peak loads when the CPU quickly ramps up its power consumption. Mine cools an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X processor. They have a TDP of 105W, although I haven't seen mine go over 80W. The rated power consumption is typically around 50 W at 37 °C. With the 360mm heatsink and MSI MAG AIO, I didn't see the CPU go above 67C and that was during Adobe After

So I really liked the cooler. It looks exquisite and cools (at first) very well. My 5800X ran for about 30 seconds idling and up to 60 seconds under load, even in a very warm environment. I built this system and started using it in April 2021. A few weeks ago I accidentally lost power. I powered the system back on, opened Ryzen Master and watched the temperature while using the computer for a while and it looked fine. There were no problems for another week when he did it again. At startup the…
