Toronto, we are here. The 2024 Rolls Royce Spectre ($495,000 starting in Canada, $422,750 in the US) is the very first EV to proudly wear the double R logo. In lieu of a silky smooth twin turbo V12, the Spectre has two electric motors making a silent 577 horsepower and 664 lb ft of torque. Befitting a true Rolls Royce, the Spectre is bespoke to the buyer and has numerous options to beautify both the interior and exterior with artistic designs. It also aims to provide a cabin that is effortless, comfortable and quiet.

But how has the transition to electric power affected the driver and their passengers' enjoyment of a Rolls Royce? Thomas and James are excited to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode! And then subscribe, silly.

The 2023 Audi R8 GT ($302,600 in Canada, $253,290 in the US) is up against its V8 ancestor, the 2009 R8 ($63,995 in the US, $85,000 in Canada). Price difference aside, these two Audi supercars command a striking mid-engine road presence and an exotic yet comfortable experience.

The elder R8 is known for its gated manual transmission that provides extra driver engagement and comes with a blazing 420 horsepower out of 8 cylinders. The R8 GT however has a newly updated 7-speed automatic transmission, a slew of carbon fibre and weight savings, and a horsepower number over 600 coming from a sonorous V10. How does the last hoorah of the Audi R8 stack up against its much more affordable ancestor? Thomas and James are excited to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode. Subscribe!

Huge thank you to @love2shift for loaning us their gated R8 and to @Brandon_sage for making it happen!

The 2022 BMW iX xDrive 50 ($117,400 CAD as specced, ~$101,825 USD as specced) is an all new electric vehicle that can travel up to 521 kilometers/323 Miles on a single charge. To achieve this range, it has been thoroughly designed with efficiency in mind. This includes a combination of low power consumption for normal use and a low drag coefficient that approaches even the mighty Lucid Air. The iX xDrive 50 can also be optioned with the 30 speaker Bowers & Wilkins system, providing the driver and all their passengers with an incredible auditory experience, But just how does the new 2022 BMW iX xDrive50 perform as a daily driver? And is it worth the price among its competition? Watch to find out what the guys think! We hope you enjoy the episode. Subscribe!!

The "million-dollar PC" isn't just powerful—it’s practically a space heater. With 9 servers pushing 7-8kW of heat, the LTT server room needed a serious cooling upgrade. The team went from cardboard ducts and salvaged towers to crafting a custom “water door” using old radiators, barbs, and a whole lot of trial and error. Will it leak? Will it work? Let’s find out.

Sure, TVs and Monitors have gotten brighter, but NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH! That’s why we embarked on a journey to see how many NITs we can hit, how many lumens we can summon, and use HIGH POWER LEDS to make a display so painfully bright, we are putting ourselves at risk every time we use it. We were too concerned if we COULD make the brightest Monitor in History, that we forgot to ask if we SHOULD.

It’s no wonder GeForce RTX 50-series Founder’s Edition power connectors are melting, what with nVidia insisting on using tiny little connectors, and THEN making matters worse by wiring them up in a way sure to make an electronics engineer cringe. We joked on the WAN show that someone should just use an XT60 connector to solve the problem!
