(In Source, Portal RTX uses dxlevel 70. I also tested RTX Remix on old version of CSS (version 34/Old Engine), running on dxlevel 80 and RTX Remix does nothing unless its dxlevel 70. Other info about RTX Remix limitations aswell.) |

RTX Remix is a technology developed by 
Nvidia, designed to introduce real-time ray tracing and advanced graphical enhancements to classic video games. This technology has the potential to be integrated with 
Valve's gaming ecosystem, allowing modders and developers to update older titles with cutting-edge visual effects. By leveraging RTX Remix, classic games available on Valve's platform could undergo a renaissance, offering players modernized visuals while preserving the original gameplay experience.
Incorporating RTX Remix capabilities enables the replacement of textures and models using 
Universal Scene Description and Scene Capture, in addition to introducing features such as PBR, RTX lighting, and RTX reflections. Presently, the utilization of RTX Remix necessitates an NVIDIA graphics card for mod creation. Although support for Radeon graphics cards remains unconfirmed, players can still experience RTX Remix mods, albeit without the ability to create them, and have lower performance compared to NVIDIA graphics card. It is improbable that Radeon graphics cards will be supported in the future.
