This is our first in a series of blogs, which will highlight our first modded build with their Y60 case!

It's got a focus on aesthetics, but also general cooling, with a design created to enable continuous airflow around the case. So long as you use liquid cooling anyways, otherwise, you'll need to install another couple of intake fans if you're using a standard air cooler. There are already a couple of exhaust fans in the base of the case, specifically to draw air over the mounted graphics card, too. The three pre-installed Flow FE12 fans with fluid-dynamic bearings provide whisper-quiet operation.Credit is provided by Novuna Personal Finance, a trading style of Mitsubishi HC Capital (UK) PLC, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

The very necessity of mods came during a time when PCs themselves were still relatively new within the world, yet still readily available. “Modding,” came around during a point in time when consumers were extremely limited in what they could achieve with a PC out of the box. No corner pillar. The Y60 features a 3-piece panoramic tempered glass design for the ultimate photo and display potential.

Before we started modding and building up this PC, we wanted to get a sort of reference or direction on what some of the people at HYTE were looking forward to seeing. Being that this is our second project with HYTE, you can’t do the same mod twice in a row. Like Basher says in Ocean’s Thirteen, “You don’t do the same gag twice, you do the next gag.” At LiquidHaus, we take pride in doing things differently in attainable ways, with minimal equipment required.The Y60 also makes a vertical mount of your graphics card a doddle, with a robust riser cable that attaches to the chassis in two places to keep it and the GPU steady.

One of the coolest methods of creating mods these days is through the use of 3D models. HYTE was gracious enough to send over the model for the Y60 so that we could take full advantage of what the Y60 is, and what we could do with it. The issue is that the fan is set slightly too close to the rear I/O panel. Many motherboards today have preinstalled rear I/O shields and shrouds, which respectively help ease installation and improve the board's aesthetics. All of the motherboards we had on hand for testing employed this design, and none of them could be installed into the Hyte without first removing the fan. This likely wouldn't be a problem if you used a motherboard with a detached rear I/O shield and no rear shroud, but as essentially all high-end boards nowadays have a rear I/O shroud, it's a fairly significant design flaw. The vision for the Y60 was to make a chassis that displays everything you want, and hides everything else. You’ve already blown us away with some incredible REVOLT 3 builds and mods. We can’t wait to see the amazing PCs that get built in here! More Specs Chamfered "molding" on the top and bottom of the chassis ground the case visually and allow for glass-free displays.

This mod choice has a thermal benefit as well. The bottom intake fans and the side radiator fans will be less impeded with the pump and reservoir relocated. Continuing our product announcement series for 2022, we think you’re going to love our first ATX PC case, the Y60. Step forward Hyte Y-60 - a case I have been waiting months to arrive in the UK. It looks great, its extremely well built using high quality materials. The Hyte Y60 is an interesting PC case that can be the foundation of a stunning build if you play your parts right. If you're looking to show off your components, the Y60 is one of the best chassis you can buy to do just that. If aesthetics is your top priority, it's a no-brainer. We found ourselves a bit challenged at deciphering what exactly could be changed or modified with the case, that wasn’t already done. HYTE thought of everything.
