The Hyte Y40 isn't for everybody - watch this 2 build review before you buy
57Prawn here with my review of the Hyte Y40 PC case. Here I'm showing you the things I found while building in this case with two different setups. I wanted to test it in different ways but also find out what was going to be an issue with it while building and testing. I've made an in-depth build guide on the case that you can see as well, but in this video I'm briefly covering the things to know about it before you buy.
I've also previously crafted this case with some fake Infinity fans.

I forgot to mention the GPU temps, but it got to 60 degrees while gaming and didn't seem to get much higher. You can see the results in the benchmarks and stress tests too, showing about the same levels. So actually cooler than I expected.
