What matters is not what the maximum power rating of any given card is, but 
how you configure it. IANAL, but my understanding is, in law, you have to be 
able to demonstarte that your card complies with the maximum emissions rules, 
and obviously a card with a max output power at or below the UK maximum is 
pretty much a no brainer on that one. But you could also demonstrate that by 
limiting power output.

In answer to your basic question, though, I think you should be okay with 
these cards.
