I am a chump who likes shiny things, so the release ofPortal with RTXon Steam pleases me.

Ray-tracing does not come cheap.

That’ll be why those red buttons looks so red, then.

Everybody else might struggle, with “Mixed” Steam reviews reporting both limp framerates and frequent crashes.

A fair few say their GPUs are running rather hot, too.

If you own Portal, you might grab Portal with RTX for freefrom Steam.
