My render times from cs6 seem to be really slow... what can i do to speed them up?

I'm shooting almost exclusively on canon dslrs, a mix of 5d mk2 and 650d, i'm multitracking between 5 and 10 takes for multicamera documentations of bands. each track is around 4-5 minutes long and there's colour correction and grading on each track for the final exports which keep coming in at around 2 1/2 to 3 hours which seems to be a long time to me.
my system set up is so:
windows 7 ultimate 64bit
amd phenom x6 1090 t black edition @3.2ghz
32gb ddr 3 ram
nvidia quadro 4000
ssd system/program drive
wd black edition 5oo gb for premiere files
wd black edition 5oo gb scratch disk
wd black edition 2 tb for original footage
wd green 3 tb for exports
any tips for how best to set up my system would be much appreciated.

First, view the results at the CS5 Benchmark http://ppbm5.com/ to have an idea of where your computer will fit... and maybe even run the benchmark so you will know where it fits in the list
Second, a couple comments
An AMD cpu will never be as fast as Intel, due to missing firmware instructions
Unless you have a 10bit monitor and therefore NEED a Quaddro card, an nVidia GTX card is faster
