Fine, don't sell high end computing systems to Europe. Let them go back to the stone age. Their government will either relent, or their people will overthrown their stupid governments.

As someone in the UK, I'm not terribly worried about this. I say bring on quieter and more power efficient GPUs.

I don't see why GPUs outside the EU will change, so I'm not sure it's a big deal outside of Europe. EU cards will likely be undervolted and underclocked, just as a HD 7870 is to put into laptops as a HD 7970m.

I doubt it will be impossible for the end user to change the voltages/clocks back. EU users will just have to find a non-EU VBIOS or change voltage/clocks in some available software.
