It involves cooling the machine properly. What is required, is for somebody to supply or calculate the max Ambient temp at that elevation. What the result will be is that the current spec for a class-A computer room of 28 C will be lowered to insure adequate cooling. In reality it is probably not an issue since the 8200 can operate in a class-B 35 C max temp and typically the CPU chips are the parts needing the most cooling. Check to be certain /Dave |
