Packaging

HYTE ships the chassis in a brown cardboard box with an image of it at the face. This is also where you will find a sticker to let you know which color variant is within. On the rear is a blow-up diagram and some more company branding. One of the side panels goes the traditional route by listing specifications, but the other just has some humorous, lighthearted statements from HYTE. That includes a cheeky jab at NZXT with the mention of "being able to fit more than your basic Kraken" as NZXT's mainstream enclosures were limited in terms of AIO capabilities for the longest time (Editor's note: that has changed a bit with the newer H-series).


The HYTE Y40 is held in place by two solid Styrofoam spacers and further protected by a plastic bag. Unlike the Y60, this one actually has custom designed Styrofoam blocks with the HYTE branding on them simply to add to the unboxing experience, which is a nice touch.

You will get the bare essentials within the chassis, which includes some zip ties and a set of sorted screws. Alongside those necessities is a 3.5 mm splitter cable for the front audio combo I/O. It would have been nice to see some Velcro strips, as the Y40 features possibilities to secure external cables in the rear of the chassis. A fairly detailed manual is also included, which should come in handy as the Y40 is quite unique in many ways.
