Conqueror is available in black with two options of color for the front panel opening, black or silver, and with or without a transparent side window. We reviewed the black-panel version with a transparent side window (a.k.a. RPS-01-W BK).
We removed all covers to see what is behind them, see Figure 5. By default this case comes with its two hard drive cages installed on the lower bays, but you can move them around. Conqueror has two 120-mm frontal fans, which are attached to the hard disk drive cages. Even though this case does not feature a speed controller for its fans, all fans use a three-pin connector, allowing you to install them on the motherboard and thus monitor their speed. These fans glow blue when turned on.
The material used inside the case is the same one used by low-end products and even though the edges are rounded to avoid you from cutting yourself we were afraid of getting cut (this didn’t happen, though).
As you can see, no screwless mechanism is used to fast disk drives or daughter boards; they must be fastened to the case using regular screws
This case has nine external 5 ¼†bays and they don’t come with any screwless installation mechanism. On the default configuration the bottom six bays are used by two removable hard disk drive cages, so if you keep the default configuration you can only three 5 ¼†bays available.

Rosewill Conqueror is a mid-tower case targeted to the average user that wants an inexpensive case with features usually only found on high-end models. Here is a summary of what we found about this product.
The maximum suggested retail price for this case (USD 110) is completely out of reality. This case is a good pick if you can buy it for around USD 60. In fact it is sold at Newegg.com for USD 65, which is not a bad price at all. At this price point it competes with Tagan A+ Curbic, a mid-tower case that we reviewed and liked a lot.
