In this video we're going to do an unboxing and an overview of the HYTE Y40 mid tower case this
one in black and red and this thing is beautiful but don't take my word for it
let's check out the unboxing real quick so here She is again the HYTE Y40 panoramic tempered
glass four slot vertical Graphics Cold Floor cooling here we can see a little bit of what
it looks like Y40s Tier S aesthetic case coming along the side over here just speaks about the
specifications and compatibility UPC serial number all that good stuff down here along
the back it shows up a blown up view of the case I love when they show this it's pretty awesome
and then why we made this a new build should feel new I'll let you read all that on your
own but just wanted to show you the case real quick now let's go ahead and open it up
so you can see how it looks like at the very top just in case there was anything crazy
so in this baggie
I'll start off with that first, we have their users guide which
is kind of shy on words, more pictures if anything here they give you
the contents of the case in different languages and then they show you different things
with very little text but don't worry about this in the upcoming video I'm going to show you how
to build inside of this case so stay tuned for that very nice looking case so far it does have
and I'll take that off in a second but that sounded kind of nice oh in the paint
feels really nice awesome okay
this seems to be stuck down here
maybe pulling it out but we'll figure that out in a sec here we can see the panoramic view we can
see the front of the case and the side of the case nothing in the way kind of this but not really
and then looks really nice we can see down here there's two USB ports and a USB Type-C
along with a power button and a headphone and microphone Jack then over here I don't know if
you can see it but there is behind these lines a mesh filter so that all the air that gets
sucked in gets trapped right over here you just have to clean this every now and then
along the back here we have a full size home for your power supply up to 224 millimeters
in length and it comes with a 120 millimeter fan along the back here we can see seven half
height PCIE slots and four full height vertical expansion slots and then over here for your I/O
and then over here to take this panel off just use your thumb maybe right here just pull it
and it slides right out and then actually that's as much as it slides out I'm holding it just in
case I don't break the glass then I'll pull it out and then I can take the rest of this
off holding the side panel on is this little tab or nipple here that would slide right into
these grooves here locking the side panel in place and then the bottom piece slides right
in here between the outer case and the power supply shroud or the base of the case and
this is glass as well then here we have something pretty awesome that we saw in the Y60 this is the
PCIE card that sits in the very first PCIE slot that has the ribbon that comes down into the PCI
slot here for a vertically mounted video card then again here four full height PCIE expansion slots
that would be for either a two three or four slot card even a one slot card over here now
this will take up to a 422 millimeter in length graphics card and 94 millimeters in height and
we're going to see a lot more of that very soon so stay tuned then down here there is a fan blowing
cool air up through the case then along the side over here there is two openings so you can slide
some cables in through the back of the motherboard tray and then also right over here for the rear of
the CPU socket that way you can have a rear plate for liquid cooling or for air cooling as well it
is a very nice size hole then the big old H over here up to a 280 millimeter radiator here so at
120 a 140 a 240 and a 280 millimeter radiator and then the rear we can fit up to a 120 millimeter
radiator then coming along the back over here the same way that we remove the side panel over here
remove that side panel here and again that paint feels really nice it feels like automotive paint
I like it then flipping it around here we can see that H that we saw on the other side of
the panel and then that mesh right up here or that filter then coming along the rear
over here we have a tray so that we can fit two 2.5 inch SSD’s or mechanical drives we can also
take it out so that we can easily put it there and then just as easily slide it back in
and screw it back in then towards the bottom of the case here we have twist tight in here
the accessories box we'll go over that in a second I'll just move it over for now
and then we have the front panel cables first cable is HD audio then we have the front panel
cable for the power button and the HD activity light then we have the USB 3.0 connection and the
USB Type-C connection right here and then for this 120 millimeter fan we have this
DC cable kind of surprised it's DC I would think it would be PWM but three pin DC and
mind you even though it is DC you can't control the speed of the fan through voltages if your
motherboard supports that and while it does come with 120 millimeter fan you can't swap
it out for a 140 millimeter fan then over here where you would put the power supply there are
two long strips here foam so that it insulates it so it doesn't make too much noise when the fans
rev up on the power supply then along the bottom of the case we can see it has one two three four
rubber pads to keep it from sliding around on the top of your desk and then two huge filters
that we can slide out wash dry and then slide back in
and these feet are almost an inch tall so it gives it some good room along the top of the
case you can fit up to a 360 millimeter radiator but you can do a 120 or a 240 as well and if you
don't want a radiator up here you can actually fill it up with three 120 millimeter fans now the
same goes for the side of the case if you don't want to put up to a 200 millimeter radiator you
can put two 120s or two 140 millimeter fans blowing cool air into the case that way it
passes all through over here and then potentially getting sucked out from the ceiling and from the
rear over here since there will be another fan along the bottom blowing air up this will take
a CPU Cooler height up to 183 millimeters and she will house motherboards from ITX Micro ATX
and ATX as well as I mentioned earlier you can fit back here two 2.5 inch drives now if
you only want one drive you can slap back here a 3.5 inch Drive then that would be your only drive
so it makes a little more sense to have two 2.5 inch drives then inside the accessory box
We'll find here 20 motherboard screws five power supply screws that's nice
they gave you an extra one just in case five screws for the hard drive or SSD’s
kind of odd they didn't include one for every single hole on an SSD or a hard drive but
that's a different story ah but these 18 pieces are also for the SSD not just the motherboard
now since the front panel only has one port for audio they include this so that you can plug this
into that one port and then here you have one for your microphone and one for your headphone
that's pretty nice and then last but not least one of my favorite accessories first off they include
five zip ties of the little thin ones then this is my favorite for standoffs a standoff screw bit
that way you just put this on a screw and then twist it that way an easy way for you to remove
standoffs rather than using needle nose pliers so right now just doing the unboxing I really like
the way the case feels I love the way the paint feels, feels like automotive paint but the case
itself weighs 19 pounds it's made from ABS plastic steel and tempered glass it kind of feels like the
tempered glass part might be the heaviest part the rear panel feels beautiful out here but I
think that's because of the automotive finish this is all plastic not that there's anything
wrong with that but again this is all plastic which helps make it a little bit lighter as well
this portion here is steel and then when we get to the base of the case over here is plastic as well
and it's a textured plastic not totally smooth plastic back here the motherboard tray is steel
all of this of course helping the case be a little bit lighter and be a little bit more affordable
the HYTE Y40 is a beautiful case she comes in at 17.3 inches long 9.6 inches wide 18.6 inches
tall as well a nice size case not too big not too small it can take an ATX motherboard be nice if
it could take an eATX but then the case of course would be a little bit bigger unfortunately it's
not completely steel or aluminum it is a lot of ABS plastic but it still looks good and I could
hope that it cools as well as it looks but stay tuned for that now with that if the video is ready
you'll find that video right up here and if it's not ready in the meantime you'll see the height
Y60 build bet I got you covered no matter what this is Iggy with ThisBytesForYou up see you guys
