Anyone know how to increase render speed?

I know this sounds a bit stupid but while my brother is away I'm rendering his videos for him on his computer and it takes forever to render a 10 min video it takes about a hour.

He used Sony Vegas Pro 12 and I'm going to post images of his render settings.
And I also added a image of his computers specs (probably going to embarrass him when he comes back)

Haha, no problem ;)

Is it a laptop?
No its a desktop. Had it since 2008 and only upgraded the processor and ram and graphics card since :p

Yeah his cpu is holding him back, The rest is okay. Nothing you can do really other than get some better hardware.
I thought so, any recommendations for what type he should get? I might buy him a new motherboard and processor and stuff for a late christmas present :p

He would really need a new kit, With that CPU it would proberbly be DDR2 ram, And all new mobo's only take ddr3.
I just bought a new pc for rendering, well the parts anyway, Intel is the way to go, Haswell, although it runs hot is really really good. It would set you back approx £500 for the new cpu, mobo and ram that he would need. i7 4770k is 250. The ram would be around 130 and the mobo, well the one that i got was 150. So thats 530 right there.
 
Yes. Have less programs running or open in your laptop and delete some of the stuff on your laptop or computer which makes the system faster because there is more space. Also check for any viruses.
