Features:

  • Curved Display: E15 360 features a huge 6.67-inch 2K AMOLED display with a 110-degree curved viewing angle, supporting custom animations, images and videos. It can operate in full-screen, split-screen or extended-display modes, making it more than just a fancy pump cover.
  • Laminar Focus Cooling: MSI’s three-fan setup uses Laminar Focus Technology, with the middle fan spinning in reverse to reduce turbulence, smooth out airflow and cut down noise. There’s also a 30mm-thick radiator and a cooling safeguard that automatically ramps up the remaining fans if one fails.
  • Clean Installation: Slick installation process with its EZ Conn single-cable design, connecting the screen, fans, ARGB and pump through one cable. The magnetic POGO-PIN screen also simplifies installation, while the 90-degree tube clips help keep the tubing looking neat and tidy.
