Vegas only uses software rendering. The speed of the render is controlled by the speed of your processor. Buying new hardware, such as a video card, will not affect the render.

I think with V5 you can split render between two or more machines...
And, as it's been said before on this forum, keep in mind that *actual editing* with Premiere is a so looong process compared to V5 that in the end, when you calculate the *whole* time you spend on a project , you may find that even with a longer render time, you'll end up winning some time with Vegas...I digress now, sorry...

To get back to the original question: TWO things to keep in mind for improving render times with V4:
CPU speed (like Dave said) and Memory (the more the better). That's at least what the manual says.

I've always found the rendering times in Vegas much shoter then in Premiere. Of course to compare you must do the same things (cuts, fx, etc).
