https://www.techpowerup.com/303404/hyte-unleashes-the-potential-of-its-unique-y60-case-design-with-touchscreens-and-distro-plates HYTE started out as a DIY retail channel brand for the unique case and peripheral designs of gaming PC builder iBuyPower, but has grown into a unique brand on its own. Their most iconic product, the Y60 case, stands out for its "corner plot" design, where the front-left corner of the case has been carved out into a corner-facing side. In most trims of the Y60, this would be a tempered glass panel; and some of the newer themed variants, this is an additional surface for air—either decals or stained-glass/prints. At the 2023 International CES, the company unlocked two unique uses for this corner panel.
The first of these is a touchscreen that spans the entire height of the panel, and connects to your graphics card like any other display, and takes up a USB header for the touch input. The possibilities for this screen are endless—scroll through Windows 11 Start widgets, use a hardware monitoring app, as a game HUD, or what have you. The second of these is a really groovy distro-plate + pump device designed by iBuyPower. You no longer need to cover the entire front-panel with one of these, can they can take up the corner panel. The coolant ports of the plate are optimally located for builds using this case. The company even designed HYTE branded fittings to go with these.
I really like the touchscreen, but I'll admit that the distro-plate looks awesome as well.
