Much-Loved Disney World Ride Reopens And Promptly Shuts Down After Mishap, Then Reopens

Much-Loved Disney World Ride Reopens And Promptly Shuts Down After Mishap, Then Reopens https://ift.tt/vUeaRK5 One of Walt Disney World's most popular attractions, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, reopened on May 3 after about 1.5 years of downtime for refurbishments and upgrades. The reopening did not go entirely to plan, as cast members had to use a fire extinguisher on the Magic Kingdom ride to deal with an issue, prompting an evacuation of guests and the ride to close temporarily as the issue was addressed. A parkgoer posted a photo on social media showing a cast member using a fire extinguisher on the ride's tracks, with a white substance covering the area. Whether or not there was an actual fire is unknown. The incident happened around 5:45 PM and the ride later reopened. No injuries were reported, and Disney has not commented on the mishap.

AMD Tackles The 1440p Market With New RX 7800 XT And RX 7700 XT GPUs

AMD Tackles The 1440p Market With New RX 7800 XT And RX 7700 XT GPUs https://ift.tt/Y8q10rg

AMD is taking aim at the 1440p market with two new GPUs that attempt to balance generation-on-generation performance improvements and affordability.

The RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT will both launch on September 6, with a free copy of Starfield to give you an easy way to properly test them. These two cards, priced at $500 and $450, respectively, are more squarely aimed at tackling Nvidia's limp attempt at a mid-range card this generation, with both the RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4070 mostly failing to impress the wide range of PC consumers. The RX 7800 XT boasts some impressive numbers over the RTX 4070 according to AMD's in-house testing, in both traditionally rasterized performance and ray tracing (an area where AMD has lagged behind for two generations).

In games such as Cyberpunk 2077, Hogwarts Legacy, and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, the RX 7800 XT outperformed the RTX 4070 at 1440p by 23%, 15%, and 5% respectively. It did, however, lose out heavily when ray-tracing was turned on, with Nvidia's card pulling ahead by 12% in Spider-Man: Miles Morales and 18% in Doom Eternal. Still, some outliers in favor of AMD with single-digit performance advantages, such as Resident Evil 4 and Far Cry 6, both with raytracing on, show that AMD has potentially made some ground up. And at a full $100 cheaper, the RX 7800 XT proposes some mighty value over the RTX 4070.
