Indigo doesn't use your graphics card to render, at least not right now. It may be worthwhile investing in a new graphics card in anticipation for GPU acceleration, however your problem doesn't have to do with your card.

Indigo naturally takes longer to resolve than other renderers due to its accurate and thorough simulation of light. 10 hours does sound like a while to resolve a 1000x700 image, though. Could you post the image? What does your scene consist of?

Hi black_snow, welcome to the forum!

I think using glass acceleration and exit portals for the window would help a lot :)
