Review Hyte Y70 Touch Review: World’s First ‘4K’ PC Case?

[Admin]

The Hyte Y70 Touch is a very ambitious case due to its 4K touch screen. And if you like the idea of having a big screen, it’s a pretty solid option.

I wonder if doom would be playable on this screen with its weird aspect ratio? (or Crysis? lol)

definitely the first thing that major pc review channels will do

4k on that small a display is just "why?".

The first thing they will try to do is game on it, but I don't think it would be a very enjoyable experience because of the fact that the display is a lot taller than it is wide.

I'm hoping since "Touch" is part of the name that means they'll release one without the screen. It seems like they resolved the issues with the Y60 while improving cooling capability since the side/bottom was 2x 120/140mm. I'm still not totally sure I'd get one, but if they did release one without the screen it'd be towards the top of my options.

I always felt cases were supposed to be kept on the ground next to the desk. That way you hear the least fan noise. Never thought the case itself would take up half the desk space.

I don't hate it.

Mid 70s on the CPU isn't that impressive. My 13700K overclocked has never hit above 73.

I hope those numbers are because the case doesn't have any fans as per your install in the article. Seems like the stock layout is just a sauna.

Its rather pricey

future telling: Whats next, an entire side panel as a touch screen? and on the front? Why not turn PC case into your monitor, as if there are so many screens on it, you won't want a display as well.

If we really lucky it will make RGB redundant as you can't see inside the case again.

This case has taken RGB, made it more stupid and a screen.
Adding cost, complexity and energy consumption to a case for minimal useful functionality is just stupid. On top of that for it to make even some sense, the case needs to be displayed which means putting it where it takes up desk space and its fans are going to be heard more.

It could work for Tetris, but why would you. This case is stupid.

Better yet, have the entire side panel of the case be a 240hz 1440p (or 4k) OLED screen with all the burn-in prevention of a normal OLED monitor.

I don't really watch TV programs anymore, so lets bring TV to my PC case for no real reason, and on a screen so small, a group of folks probably couldn't watch it...
WTFudge with that price tag... let me get a Silverstone Alta instead.

. let me get a Silverstone Alta instead.

I wish

Hyte took inspiration from this idea in one case but can't beat the original... wish they make a gaming version of this... its so much money.

 

[Phaaze88]

Huh? 'Gaming' makes something cheaper?

 

[Colif]

Silverstone had 2 case families that used same interior design.
Fortress was the premium case, steel construction
Raven was the gaming case, more plastic.

If they made a Raven version of this case I would be really tempted.

Fantastic 4K screen

It's a bit of a stretch to call that a "4K screen". It's half of a 4K screen, roughly equivalent to two 1080p displays in terms of pixel count.

I wish Silverstone made a mid/full size case similar in design to the Alta G1M (I dream of the F2, but that price) as the F1 really needed a little better design for today's systems.

And before you know it, some poor soul will posting questions here about how their "beautiful case screen" is acting up and how to fix it.

Fish tank pebbles, Fish, Air filters, Not included.

Those will act as an AIO coolant....😉

 

[Colif]

Curious how good case is without the screen. I want to see tests. Really easy to wow people with a screen.

the software to power screen is still being finalised.

Apart from screen, there doesn't seem to be much change from the Y60

which is made for water cooled GPU as its not as efficient with air. It scores at the low end of both CPU & GPU cooling. It looks good but the design impedes air flow.

Not even a good fish tank, too many holes

I wanted to make fun of it and call it a gimmick, but I watched Jay-Z's review of this case and it's pretty awesome. I would totally buy this case and do a build around it.
