Love the color and look! Way more space to work with and still have plenty room and slots to add more components in the future.

I wanted to redesign and upgrade my secondary PC which my daughter uses for gaming so I decided to build out an all AMD rig with a vertical mount so she could play Hogwarts at max settings at 1440p. After much research, I settled on the Hyte Y40. It has turned out to be a decent case but with a few problems. Material quality is definitely a step above average and the case itself is very sturdy. Building in it is pretty easy and straight forward and I love that the front, top and back just pop off and on. One thing I noticed is the exhaust fan was very loud. No matter what I did outside of slowing it down greatly, it was audibly louder than all the other fans. I ended up removing it and the lower intake fan and replacing the case fan with an aRGB 120mm and the intake with an aRGB 140mm. Another issue is one many case makers make and that is a lack of depth in the rear of the case for thicker cables to lay down easily and snap the back on especially if you have longer/thicker cables, hubs, accessories or more. It's crazy what even another inch would do overall. Lastly, and the biggest problem, was the riser card. This was installed with an Asus B650 Prime motherboard and no matter what I did the card would not sit fully in the PCIe slot because it didn't have enough depth before the screw down slat was flush with the rear screw bracket and bottom latch. I ended up having to detach it and readjust it and let it float a bit to fit in properly and now the screw down portion is about 1/4" above the screw hole instead of flush. Doing some searches shows I'm not alone in this problem with the riser implementation and most likely it is a seating issue with the PCI card->motherboard. Some have also had issues with the actual GPU mounting too. Now that everything is up and running, I DO like the looks and visuals of the case very much and it turned out exactly like I thought it would but the loud fan(s), poor QC on the PCIe riser and yet again lack of cable depth in the back for easier runs has me on the fence overall with this case.

[Employee of bestbuy] Perfect for a build. Easy S tier for aesthetics. Super easy to build upon, as well. Plenty of space for cable management and components. Would highly recommend. Also huge win for vertical GPU mount

Great case not as roomy as y60 but still plenty of room for an easy build pure white really pops.

The Hyte y40 is a brand new compact mid tower case from the folks at hyte. The case offers a clean, minimalist design with tempered glass side panels that show cases your build similar to their y60 case. The case also includes a pcie Gen 4 riser cable which is a nice added on inclusion. I much prefer the look of the y60 but I also got the y40 purely because it fits my desk more in terms of space. Overall, the y40 is a sold choice for those who wants to showcase their builds.
