foreign
why is everyone talking about this case
well let's talk about it
of course there's new 32-inch Z neon
1440p gaming monitor has the features
you need to play your best features like
silky smooth 165 Hertz refresh rate IPS
display with one millisecond mprt
response time quantum dot technology
hdr400 and built-in mount for either a
microphone webcam or even a DSLR to see
the complete list of features of the
Corsair xenion 32-inch gaming monitor
follow the link in the description below
so this is the y60 by height height is
actually a brand uh that's a part of
well
I buy Power I buy Power is an SI here in
the United States
um We're not gonna talk about I buy
Power we're going to talk about the fact
that they are an SI that's been around
for a long time that has had a lot of
unique case designs that you can only
buy through getting one of their
pre-builds this is the first time in a
long time that I have seen a case become
available
um that has been apparently designed and
now being distributed by
NSI I don't normally do these sitting
down but my workbench is being utilized
by a 3D printer right now because I'm
trying to learn how to 3D print okay so
anyway we're using our alternate set
over here now the y60 has a pretty
unique design to it where it's Phil and
I were talking about it it's almost like
if
the fractal torrent
there's so much static I heard it I
heard it through the mic that's scary
but I'm not even touching it I feel like
I'm gonna get steps
okay I think it's discharged it's almost
like it's a fractal torrent and the
dynamic 011 or the o11 dynamic had a
baby
but it's tons of airflow the entire back
of the chassis and as you'll see in a
second here is nothing but ventilation
this could potentially be a new standard
in Cooling
but it's a very unique design as you can
see it's got a wrap around this is glass
by the way
it's got this wrap around glass in the
front
that makes well
they doubled down on the hole let's use
the motherboard tray wall thing
for cooling it is a dual chamber case
and they give you some
fold out I I don't understand why
companies do this
maybe it's just cheaper
they give you some fold out instructions
on how to
install your power supply where to put
your radiators it does support top
mounted in I believe back mounted
radiators we'll call them back mounted
it is multi-glass paneled so it's not a
curved piece of glass could you imagine
how much it would cost to make a curved
piece of glass that fits the front of
this like that so here's a side panel
right there that comes off with a single
screw now in terms of motherboard
supports Mini ITX Micro ATX ATX and eatx
it also comes pre-installed with
a USB P or excuse me a PCI Express Riser
cable it does also support three slot
for the vertical Mount as you can see
right here so it's gonna push a three
slot card though pretty close to the
glass you need to keep that in mind but
look at the bottom down here
it's all ventilated
and there are fans down inside they're
pulling air from the bottom of the
chassis up towards the top so we can
have fans in the bottom we have fans on
the back wall and we get fans up here on
top
as you can see
and then if we look at the back side in
terms of ventilation we heard you like
vents so we made an entire pedal that's
nothing but a vent pop that off
so look at that probably the biggest air
filter
I have ever seen in terms of dust and
whatnot so here's what the rear looks
like your power supply gets mounted
right here
here is a drive cage it has your
hardware and stuff in there
um does give you access to the back side
of the motherboard right here so if you
need to get in there to change say an
AIO pump if you were gonna change your
cooler from air cooler or repost or
whatever you can get to the bracket
folding off the back side front side
connectors right here you do have a fan
connectors obviously because there's
fans pre-installed in the bottom there's
no fans pre-installed on the top there
is one in the rear so then we also have
a USB 3.0 and HD audio
a front panel connector that's solid
do you have any idea how excited I am
about this the front panel connector
layout has been standard
at least not necessarily an ITX
motherboard some are different than
others still
they've been standard on
matx and up for I don't know how long so
there's no reason why you can't make it
a single plug like this it doesn't have
ketchup and mustard cables and then you
have to fight with polarities and stuff
just plug this in and it's good to go
and then you have a USBC front side
panel connector right there so this is
all pre-routed down through the bottom
right there and check this out we have
45 degree angle grommets right here that
are more than just a grommet they're
actually more of like a rubber flap so
you know how you'll put cables through a
grommet and they're like this you put
one cable through and then they're like
and it's all open and ugly looking
because one cable went through
you route these up and around from the
back side like that and The Grommet
stays put so that when you look at it
from the front side you don't have the
grommet being all ugly
it just stays nice and solid so it's a
small thing that most people would never
think about as being any sort of a
problem
it's a nice solution to a nitpick that I
think I've I've a lot of people have had
for a long time
you can see right here on the back it
does support 140 and 120 millimeter fans
two of them so you could do either a 240
or potentially a 280 AIO right here if
you so desired big channel right here to
be able to run your cables out if you're
going to change out fans on the bottom
so the top panel is just held on by
friction Nubs so you just pop that up
again biggest air filter ever and then
you get access to your radiator tray in
here the thickness is designed to where
you can run
the fans on the top side here and it
kind of goes in this recessed cubby
and then your uh AIO part can actually
hang down the bottom or vice versa
depending on the size of the AIO you got
and you can fit 120 and 140 millimeter
fans up here on the top so here is that
bracket making it a lot easier to
install so you can get your fans here
your AIO there lower it down through the
chassis
and then it's a whole lot easier to work
on it outside of the case
than it is inside so now that I've got
that bracket out of there you can see
just how much room you have for wiring
cables and such pcie cables can come
through here if you wanted them to EPS
Express power can come through here or
they can come through the main major
grommets right here there is technically
even even though there's fans right here
enough of a gap right here to where you
could bring PCI Express cables out here
up to your GPU although there are
pre-installed fans in the bottom
so you're going to want to keep that in
mind so that you don't accidentally you
know get anything caught in your blades
so there are the bottom fans two 120
millimeter fans pre-installed but this
gives you access to lower compartment
Cable Management this is something that
I'm seeing a lot more brands do now
where instead of just trying to have
everything
crammed in the backside where although
once you have the power supply here you
still have a pretty decent amount of
space right here
these grommets going underneath and this
compartment right here
allow you to hide a lot of stuff in this
area
so if you had like a commander Pro or
some other uh fan Commander unit control
box or whatever you could actually hide
that down here in the basement if you
wanted and not have to run it up here as
long as your cables are long enough so
there are screws right here on the side
that are holding in the Side Glass I
want to remove this glass real quick
it's not really
a reason that I could think of why you
would need to remove the front glass
but so far the build quality of it is
very sturdy even without any side panels
on it
there we go
so right now you're without any side
panels on it
there's not really like
too much Flex you start to break down
chassis and often you'll find that they
start to become really wobbly until
everything is put back on the outside
that's not the case here at the pun I
know but
that's about all of the jiggling I can
get one thing to keep in mind though
these outer screws right here this is
for standard ATX if you were to put an
eatx motherboard on here it will more
than likely extend out Beyond these
grommets
so that's something that you need to
keep in mind now in terms of front panel
connectivity I should say Edge panel
because this is at the 45 okay whatever
USBC usba usba a combo plug for head jet
or headphone Jacks so keep that in mind
if you've got a headphone that has a
split mic and audio jack then you'll
need an adapter to bring those back to a
single Jack to work in here which might
even be in here let me see I'm curious
now we were talking about the amount of
detail
that height has put into this case
because
of the fact that everything is
vertically or horizontal no I guess what
would you call that centered on its own
axis so if you draw a line through the
center of all these plugs everything
lines up even though they're all
different heights so little things like
that were obviously thought about so my
question now is going to be
have they thought about people that
maybe don't have
okay so that's kind of neat this this
like is like a sled that just slides out
have they thought about people that
maybe are using headphones that don't
have a combo yeah this sled is the most
industrial sounding sled
sounds like forging and there it is
there's the combo Jack
so what I just said to keep in mind if
you don't have it they provide it so
also in here it's just uh some
additional screws for mounting ssds and
drives to the drive cage and then
um some USBS so let's talk about
um storage real quick there's actually
not a lot of
places in here to Mount storage so
you've got these two drives which will
work for the three and a half inch drive
and a two and a half inch Drive
um SATA obviously would or say does ssds
would fit in these four holes right here
and you get two of these sleds looking
in the back side here there's
nowhere else to mount
either spinning drive or a SATA SSD
type of Drive
so I think what height is kind of
counting on here is the fact that so
many people have moved on to m.2 that
they would only need
you know two places to mount a drive
like that here now the nice thing about
2.5 mil a 2.5 inch ssds is the fact that
you can mount them anywhere you want
with a little bit of double-sided tape
so you can even make a sandwich of them
on here if you wanted but there's only
two official mounting locations here for
two and a half inch ssds and I don't see
any I thought maybe there'd be some
holes on here you can mount them along
the bottom but nope
this is so thick
one thing I think that's really
interesting that I should point out
though
expansion is going to be interesting
because they automatically want you to
use the vertical Riser here the
expansion slots if you've noticed are
low profile if you're going to use any
other expansions in here whether it be
Capture Card sound card whatever you can
still use it but it has to be low
profile the sad part about that is
there's not a lot of low profile
peripherals you know for expansion slots
these days
typically you'd find those in like
server grade because server grade
usually with the 2u chassis or blade
chassis is going to be low profile for
you that you can use full height but
this is something to keep in mind right
here so if you're going to be running
you know you're at your graphics card
over here which you kind of have to
you're clearly stuck with having to use
a low profile expansion charts that's
about the biggest drawback I can find
to this chassis I've said before it's
difficult to reinvent the rectangle but
every now and then you get a company
like height here that will just slice a
45 into the quarter of that rectangle
but then completely blow you away in
other aspects like hiding the fans
underneath this giant Grille on the
bottom the entire rear panel being
nothing but ventilation huge ventilation
on the top all this ventilation on the
back I also really enjoy and I like the
fact that the grill style is just this
asymmetric looking 45 degree angled you
know ventilation it's not like you know
your hexagons or circles or you know
your what we call the Star Wars pattern
which is all the verticals but they're
all Offset you know so then you have
what looks like the Imperial wall it's
just different
and that's what I love about it you can
fit
360 millimeter AIO or Radiator on the
top if you want to do custom Loop you
can fit one on the side panel you can
more than likely figure out a way to get
one down the bottom if you're creative
you can fit a 120 in the back right here
if you wanted to a 120 radiator so you
could fit a lot of Radiators in this if
you wanted to be creative with it I
would love to see when we do our next uh
Jay what do you think to see some builds
but this I know there's gonna be
somebody out there following me who's
recently done a building this this
chassis just came out within the last
few months and so I think there's
someone out there that's done a build in
this if you have sound off and uh let me
know what you guys think about it in
terms of cooler height for the CPU we
have 160 millimeters of vertical height
which technically is horizontal and the
plane that it's facing but you know it's
vertical with the perpendicular mounting
you get what I'm trying to say 160
millimeters of clearance before you hit
the sidewall right here
um so you could fit a pretty decent
cooling tower in this if you weren't
going to do water cooling but I feel
like this is the kind of chassis that
would thrive in both environments put a
big dual Tower cooler on here like a big
be quiet dark Rock Pro or something or
noctua or put a big 360 AIO in here and
have all the other fans cranking and you
would have a ton of cool air making its
way inside of this chassis because it
literally could pull air from anywhere
it wants and considering the fact that
every single opening in this chassis
has a fan filter on it
dust shouldn't be something that
accumulates in here too badly as long as
you stay on top of it alright guys
thanks for watching sound off down below
what you guys think about our first look
at the height y60 is this a case that
you guys would consider 100
um transparency here I was skeptical I
was skeptical when I heard that it was
uh you know an affiliation with I buy
Power I was skeptical about it being a
brand I'd never really heard of um and
then when I saw photos of it I thought
it they added a 45 degree to it and
didn't really you know do anything super
unique on the first photos I saw but
then once we started looking at it
obviously there is a huge amount of
effort a huge amount of design and this
is not cheap tooling I can promise you
right now this tooling is expensive so
it is going to be in my opinion worth
doing a build it's so look at this it is
so solid all right guys sound off down
below would you build in this case if
you would and you could what would you
put in it thanks for watching guys links
are down below so you guys should check
out height and uh see what all they have
to offer thanks for watching and we'll
see you in the next one
