UV ratings are not the most accurate when it comes to affecting cards.
I say display you collection.
These are probably the 3 main things to do:
1) Make sure your display case glass(whatever product) already is UV protected.
2) On a regular basis use a spray on UV protector on the glass.
3) Rotate your collection on display.
With treated glass and regular applying of a UV protector you can easily reduce the amount of fading. Doing this will make it take around 10X as long to begin fading. The real problem is once the fading process becomes noticeable it accelerates really fast.
