I believe its because the RTX remix games are path traced which is alot harder to do

Quake 2 doesn’t use RTX Remix. Or at least wasn’t advertised as that being the underlying tech.

Edit: I think I misunderstood what you were saying. Performance with Portal RTX Remix was significantly worse than with Quake 2 RTX.

Q2RTX is fully path traced, it was the path tracing tech demo before Portal RTX was.
