Hyte Y70

The HYTE brand has really managed to be straight as an arrow with their Y-Series cases and their design language across all of their products. With the introduction of the Y70 family, HYTE now offers a large dual-chamber chassis in four different color options alongside several limited editions. Split into two distinct SKUs, the Y70 Touch and the Y70, the latter skips the display and thus offering an option that costs a good $160 less. This makes the HYTE Y70 we are reviewing here the definitive mainstream option for those wanting the largest enclosure from the brand.

Our case reviews are FULLY OPERATIONAL & BACK! We have now finalized our methodology with changes from our Hype and Fractal North XL reviews. Now, our new data set is used to review the Hyte Y70 Non-Touch case (the same as the Hyte Y70 Touch, but without the expensive screen). This follows our prior reviews of Hyte's Y60 -- which created a new case style -- and its Y40, which disappointed us. We're back now to see how its Y70 high-end gaming PC case does. Alternatives to the Hyte Y70 and Y60 include the Antec C8 ARGB (not out yet, but the C8 is), Lian Li O11D Evo and Evo XL, Corsair's 6500 series (review coming soon), and non-dual-chamber cases like the Fractal Torrent.

The HYTE Y70 is a case built for people who want their hardware seen, not hidden. Between the four-slot vertical GPU support, serious cooling capacity, and thoughtful build-quality touches, it’s an easy recommendation for anyone planning a showpiece build.
