In Reply to: RE: Sound Quality Changes caused by Sata cables. posted by Bob_C on July 6, 2014 at 12:13:04:
I was talking about DIY pc's and was referring to the components used to assemble with."If systems, can you please explain the difference between a system assembled by a manufacture vs DIYer?"
Companies like HP, Dell etc when selling systems into Europe need declarations of conformance and to display the CE mark as required by law in order to legally sell there. While it's possible to self certify, if one doesn't actually meet the requirements to pass there are stiff legal penalties which can get applied. DIY assembled PC's exist with no legal scrutiny presumably other than the applicable requirements on the components purchased used to create them. Often subtle but important construction/configuration differences can be found in compliant systems as compared with DIY boxes...spread spectrum possibly being turned on by default for example. Not to say DIY boxes can't ever be good just that until someone tests it there is no way to know.
You can get these declarations of conformance for the systems off the websites usually. They are legally required and so are available by request if not posted.
