Xeon Platinum 8160 vs. 8160T

[celticbrooder]

Lenovo ThinkStation P720, Dual Xeon CPU

Currently, Xeon Gold 6148 installed;

Lenovo recommends Platinum 6180T ("140W")

With additional (non-OEM/aftermarket) cooling,

Can the Platinum 6180 ("150W") be a direct replacement? for the 6180T?

Currently, 6180T is selling at 3 times the price of the 6180

Thank you for any useful information
