Non EMV compliant case?

I'm building up the components of my recently replaced pc for a friend of mine.

She really wants a clear case with UV lights etc.

As I live in Manchester, I want to go to Micro Direct. They have one called a Sharkoon Acrylic Showcase.

It looks a good price but it says that it doesn't conform to EMV standards due to the fact it's primarily a showroom case.

What are EMV standards? I'm guessing it's something to do with Electro Magnetism.

How will this affect her in the real world?

Should I leave the case alone?

Thanks a lot.

Re: Non EMV compliant case?

EMV stands for Electromagnetic Vulnerability. So, I would hazard a guess that as the case is solely made of acrylic, any electromagnetic variance would affect the components more than, say, an aluminium or steel case...

Cheers. Hopefully it won't make any difference.
