Render time for video of 25 min in 1080 60fps is 27 min, is this ok?

Hi I just bought a new pc with a Amd 9 Ryzen 3900 x CPU and a 2070 GPU Nvidia card. Power Supply 850. I expected that the rendering times would be like really absurd fast. But I tried to render first video in vegas, a 25 min video, 1080 60fps, but it took like 27 mins. My question , is this acceptable considered the specs? OR am i doing something unnecessary which is causing it to take so much time?

@bigdaddyjende-b - What Media have you got on the TL? Does your Project Settings match your Media? What Template are you rendering to? What FXs have you used?

its a 60fps mp4 file if thats what you mean on the Time line.

My Project settings match the media" Could you tell how I could check this? Because what i did is set up custom template all set to 1080 60 fps and als for the rendering"and into sony avc.

zero FXS besides a small watermark which i made by just using a text template and reducing the capacity to 15^%

go into file>project properties and make sure that the project is set to 1080p (1920x1080 pixels) and 59.94fps. Also make sure it is not set to interlace, if you see upper or lower field first, set that to off.

For playback, go into the preferences menu and under the video tab, make sure your Geforce card is showing up under GPU acceleration. Then go to the File I/O tab and make sure it is selected as the decoder.

Then the format you are rendering to is also important. If you render to Magix AVC or Magix HEVC, make sure you select the encode presets that say (NVENC) next to them. Also, make sure those settings match the 1080p 59.94fps settings of your media and project.

Doing these 3 things makes sure Vegas is fully utilizing your GPU. If you notice render errors or crashes, update to the latest Studio driver from Nvidia.

What @fr0sty is suggesting helps only if you use the newest VPro 17, but you did not mention the program you are working with.

So Vegas 14 doesn't support GPU accelerated anything on your card, unfortunately. Your best bet would be to upgrade, you're probably pulling about as much performance out of 14 as you can expect to get.

OK THAT EXPLAINS...DOES 15 SUPPORT OR ONLY 17?
