I have e-mailed the sketchup file we discussed (zipped)

Be interested how you get on

IrenderNXT is all about processor performance (and RAM to some extent) The graphics card has no bearing on render speeds.

Just a thought but are you rendering with all your cores ?

If you go to NXT setup options (little yellow clipboard)

Then click 'More' you will see you have a choice of how many cores to use - make sure its set to all of them (or all but one if you want to do something processor intensive whilst the render is taking place in the background)

I think NXT defaults to using all cores but its worth checking.

Regards and good luck
