Is all of your video stuff on your system (internal) HDD or an external? If on the system HDD, try putting all of your video rendering files onto an external HDD and hopefully things will speed up considerably
.....
(at least I'm hoping that right now it isn't on an external
I have it set up as good as possible with an SSD system drive and then an internal 7200 rpm HDD in the place where the DVD drive should be (So 6Gb/s Sata II bus speed). I store all my footage on an external Firewire 800 HDD but the FW 800 isn't fast enough to deliver 1080p 60fps video to the editing software so I copy my 'working' project to the internal and go from there. I know I could have an SSD for the second drive too, but for the cost I don't think it's worth it. Especially as, like Swiss Motard says, the processor is the bottleneck here.
I accept that because I use lot's of multi camera, audio processing, transitions, titles etc that my rendering is going to be slow. It's just part of the landscape!!

Paid £170 all together. I have a decent monitor, doesn't come with one! Does come with gaming mouse and keyboard, also has a decent cooler fitted so I can overclock it if I want!

So now I'm using 3 cameras my editing is getting a bit laggy even with using video proxies

Or a much more powerful PC for less than half the cost 
Plus I can play games on it too.

The real reasons why PC's will always out sell Mac's. I seriously do not understand why people buy macs. Saying that I need to upgrade now too. I'm getting jealous of all your render times

Yeah, their kit (except the iPhone) is very well designed/engineered.

Bought my Mac as I was fed up of replacing a laptop every two years for one reason or another. If I get 4 years continuous uninterrupted use from my Mac, it will have paid for itself essentially.The real reasons why PC's will always out sell Mac's.

PC's outsell mac's because of corporate business...Companies are just recently bringing mac's into the enterprise. Mostly small scale operations < 100 employees
I'm a fan of their packaging and Mac's are great for people who don't care about computers.
If my budget allowed I would buy a Mac and run dual OS while maintaining Windows as my primary...The Imac I spec'd was almost 2k, no thx

Exactly, they're horribly overpriced compared to the average PC and use mostly proprietary crap (iPhone/Pad sync cable change every four years?!) so you don't see aftermarket 'Apple' desktops, tablets, phones...
Companies WOULD make devices. Apple doesn't let them.
