I've been building desktop PCs for over a decade, and form rarely prioritized function when I was looking for cases. It's not like I wasn't tempted, but there were a few over the years that looked comically huge just for the sake of it. HYTE's work has nevertheless piqued my interest, particularly after I couldn't resist testing the absurd Y70 Touch and its case-mounted vertical touchscreen.
I mean, yeah, it was spacious and easy to build in, but that's mostly because it's the size of a common fish tank. Some lucky builders out there might have the space for a gigantic PC case, but our house isn't part of that collective. Fast forward to CES 2026, and our team caught a glimpse of the new HYTE X50 — a bubbly case with cat paws for feet. Now my wife wants it. She needs it.
