ΗΥΤΕ Υ40 Case Review: Thermal & Noise Damping/Output Evaluation

The HYTE Y40, released after the very successful  Revolt 3 and Y60, is the mid size offering of the brand. It’s a fish tank style case with minimal footprint, support for large components and great aesthetics.

The Y40 is another unique design from HYTE. It offers a plethora of colorways, adequate space, and two included fans. Does that mean it’s a Value-For-Money option? Keep reading to find out if that’s the case for you.

The Y40 is designed to be a vertical GPU system, as you will realize, since it comes with vertical full-size expansion slots and a PCIe 4.0 riser card out of the box. Since its release, the $20 price drop makes it an even more appealing proposition for someone looking to build such a system. Hopefully, we will soon have measured and published the performance of the  pre-installed fans,
