Hyte has officially launched the Y50 RGB Essential Aesthetic Case, bringing its Y-series chassis to a lower price point. Following its initial reveal at Computex, the case hits shelves in five distinct colour options, including white, black, red, pink, and purple.

Hardware compatibility includes support for traditional E-ATX, ATX, mATX, and ITX motherboards, as well as native layout support for rear-connect ecosystems such as Asus BTF, Gigabyte Stealth, and MSI Project Zero. Graphics cards mount horizontally across seven expansion slots, accommodating GPUs up to 360mm long and up to 170mm wide. CPU coolers can measure up to 160mm tall, while PSUs up to 250mm long are supported, reducing to 225mm when paired with rear-connect motherboards.

Cooling options accommodate up to 9x fans, with Hyte bundling pre-installed ARGB lighting out of the box. Side intake utilises a 360mm reverse-blade fan unit, complemented by a 120mm rear exhaust fan. Dual 360mm radiator support covers the side and top panels, with side clearance handling radiators up to 83mm thick and top mounting accommodating units up to 46mm thick. Storage mounts include two 3.5″ drive slots and six 2.5″ drive slots.

Front-panel connectivity sits at the corner foot of the chassis, offering a single USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, and an audio combo jack. The case is now available priced around $99.99.

KitGuru says: Are you considering Hyte for your next PC case? 

HYTE has officially launched its new HYTE Y50 RGB Essential Aesthetic Case, giving PC builders a more affordable way to get a stylish gaming setup without spending too much. The case is now available for $99.99.

The new Y50 RGB keeps the eye-catching design that HYTE is known for, including three-piece panoramic glass and a dual-chamber layout. It also adds several features aimed at making modern PC builds easier and cleaner.

One of the biggest additions is support for rear-connector motherboard designs. The case works with ASUS BTF, Gigabyte STEALTH, and MSI Project ZERO ATX motherboards, allowing cables to stay hidden behind the motherboard area.

HYTE has also added stair-stepped flooring inside the case, giving builders more freedom when arranging their components. The case supports horizontal GPU mounting as well, which can be useful for builds that need more than one graphics card.

Cooling is another strong point. The HYTE Y50 RGB can fit up to nine fans and supports two 360 mm radiators, with radiator mounting available on the top and side panels. Four ARGB fans are included with the case, so users do not need to buy a complete set of case fans separately.

The front I/O has also been placed neatly into the corner of the case. This keeps the front design clean while still making the important ports easy to reach.

HYTE Y50 RGB also available in five color options: Snow White, Pitch Black, Black Cherry, Strawberry Milk, and Taro Milk. The $99.99 MSRP is listed before VAT or tariffs.

Alongside the standalone case, HYTE’s parent company iBUYPOWER is using the Y50 RGB for several prebuilt gaming PCs. The available systems include models with AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5080 graphics cards.

The iBUYPOWER systems start at $2,599, while higher-end configurations reach $3,399 depending on the hardware.

With the Y50 RGB, HYTE is clearly trying to make its distinctive case design available to a wider group of PC builders. At $99.99, the new model also lands in a much more accessible price range than many premium-looking cases.
