Okay so if I'm reading this right, the acceptable max operating temp on the whatsminer website is like 35 degrees C which is 95 F...? Are people mining in hotter climates with air cooling just shutting them off above these temps, or I guess cooling the air before it gets to the miners...? I thought normal CPU temps were much higher? Is this just like a "don't stick q-tips in your ears" sort of temp or is 95 degrees really the max temp? #bitcoin #mining #miners

I’m mining in a South East Asian country and the room that i mine gets really hot like 35-36 degrees and miners keep chugging along just fine..just need to make sure enough air flow going through
I suspect that they’ll still work, just with degraded performance. Like with overclocking CPUs. They get too hot and they get more unstable with more errors.
The *chip, gets much hotter than this (mine was up in the 150 degree range). I think its about making sure the air you are cooling with is actually going to cool it, or using a liquid alternative.
ie. if its 120 degrees outside and your miners overheat, don't call Whatsminer because they warned you, lol.
