Should I be happy?

I do most <30 second videos, 1080P from 4K. With a few VSt's and one or two still images (intro/out). On my i7700 4200, 32 gig, SSD (rendering to), Rx480 8 gig, I am getting about 1:1 or so performance. Of course rendering to 4K's takes more time, but I should be happy and just go with it? I've thought about turn on and using QSV but do you think I'd gain much doing this? After all 30 seconds is an eternity in the digital world.

I've thought for a long time that 1:1 was a good target for contentment. To date, all my render templates are set to CPU only.

For 30 second renders, if it went any faster, I wouldn't have time to go pee.
