Deploy in the server room you already have.
The platform deploys at single-server or small-cluster scale: one unit in an existing rack, or several as a compact GPU pool, without facility changes.
A barebone platform: LM TEK supplies the chassis, the integrated cooling loop, and platform-level power. You specify the board, CPUs, GPUs, memory, and storage.

A standard server room, stated precisely.
Eight full-height GPU slots in a four-rack-unit chassis is density that normally needs 6U or 8U. The closed in-chassis loop and in-chassis radiator mean it deploys without facility plumbing or an external CDU.
The claim is precise: no facility plumbing and no external CDU, in standard server-room conditions of 5 to 30°C ambient. In LM TEK torture testing at 30°C ambient, GPU package temperatures held at 76 to 81°C, inside the envelope a real server room can offer.
The conditions
- Deploys in standard server-room conditions: 5 to 30°C ambient, 5 to 60°C coolant.
- No facility plumbing. No external CDU.
- Five 2000 W 80 PLUS Titanium PSUs with redundancy, up to 8000 W sustained.
- You still provision rack power and rack cooling headroom.
10 kW installed (5 × 2 kW); 8 kW sustained, N+1
Plan for the heat
A dense GPU server converts nearly all of its electrical draw into heat in the room. In LM TEK long-term endurance testing, a fully populated LM TEK 4U8GPU10KW measured 6800 to 7000 W sustained draw; that run has no written report yet. That heat load is defined by the GPUs and CPUs in the configuration, the same as any other max-spec 8-GPU server. Without added room cooling, ambient will rise under sustained load. The LM TEK 4U8GPU10KW’s operating envelope extends to 30°C ambient, so scope rack cooling for the configured load before deployment and keep the room inside that limit under sustained load.

Four checks for the room.
- 01 Verify rack power capacity before deployment. A fully-populated platform draws up to 8000 W sustained and requires adequate rack power provisioning.
- 02 Confirm rack clearance against the dimensional drawing (760 × 482 × 178 mm) before rack integration.
- 03 Operate within the stated envelope: 5–30°C ambient and 5–60°C coolant. Operation outside this range is not supported.
- 04 Ask engineering to review any requirement outside the published envelope.
Efficiency, and the water question
Power conversion uses 80 PLUS Titanium supplies, the highest rating in the certification; at multi-kilowatt sustained draw, conversion losses are a real operating cost and an increasingly common bid and tender criterion. And the water objection to AI infrastructure does not apply here: the loop is closed, filled once at assembly with engineered coolant, and consumes no water in operation. There is no facility water connection to consume from.
