So I read this review, http://www.anandtech.com/show/10723/the-in-win-303-case-review/5 about the In-Win 303, basic box with a tempered glass side

So isn't electromagnetic interference a thing or not? That's why we have metal cages and plating, yes?

Also, I have yet to see any case review showing thermal imaging. C'mon, that's like a birthday present to buy one of those thermal scanners and have it written off your taxes for a job-related expense.

EM is a thing however not as much as people though when it came to PC's at nowhere close to the levels of damaging either the PC itself or the equipment that the PC is next to.

We have been using Anodized Alu and acrylic bench cases, as well as some people bitcoin mining on straight up cardboard boxes, without any ill effects from EM.

thanks! No tingling sensation when you walk by? (well, except for hearing that imaginary bitcoin dropping into your wallet)
