  Hi

  I have video news website that needs to upload quickly fresh news videos, it is not necessary hd quality videos but I think my pc runs very slowly during rendering.

  My Specification:

  Windows 7 64-bit
  Processor:i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz
  RAM:32.0 GB
  Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 (4096 MB)

  I’m using Sony Vegas Pro 13 and for the following render video settings (Sony AVC/MVC) took me 2:35 mins to complete.

  

  Do you think my pc runs slow or I need to change something?
  Should i change program and use more lightweight? as I mention above I need to upload small file size videos fast n the website and I need software that cuts videos and add logo

  Thank you

  Try turning off the GPU rendering. Vegas may not be making good use of your video card, and the CPU will render much faster than the GPU.

  The difference between CPU and GPU rendering is 5 seconds

  Yup. I’ve never seen Sony AVC make much of a difference between CPU and GPU. I don’t know why but it’s only ever a few seconds.

  If you are not resizing your video, try setting you render quality to Good instead of Best. The Best setting is only needed for resizing and it slows down the render a lot.

  What is your source footage resolution and codecs? Maybe post a screen shot of your timeline and project settings.

  Have you tried the Automatic setting for the “Encode Mode?” You do have Quicksync on that 4790k. What is quicksyc render times.

  Check out the comparison between 760 and the now old 7970 on the Luxmark test.

  and then this comparison showing actual Vegas benchmarking:

  If you upgrade your GPU, make sure to follow the processes outlined in other posts on switching from Nvidia to AMD drivers.
