Rendering takes several minutes to render six seconds

I'm having an issue with the latest version of Premiere Pro (v13.1). I am trying to watch a 6-second video but the video does not play in the program panel. When I try rendering in to out it takes a little longer than 3 minutes to render. After rending, I can view the video normally. This is my first time using Premiere pro in a long time but I have not had this issue in the past on this pc. I tried installing it on my laptop and added the same video in sequence and it works like it's supposed to. I can scrub normally and render in to out takes a couple of seconds. I tried reinstalling the current version of Premiere Pro on my desktop but I still have the same issues. Both my laptop and desktop have the default settings for Premiere and I did not change anything after reinstalling fresh on both devices. In task manager, Premier uses only 10% of my CPU and under GPU I see that it jumps between 0-10% GPU usage with the used GPU Engine column saying that it's not using any Pu except occasionally for decoding but only for half a second here and there. I'm not sure if that information helps for I am using Mercury CUDA as my Playback Engine. Again the default settings. Also, both devices use SSDs.

Desktop specs:

Intel i7 8th gen

32gb ram

RTX 2070

GTX 1070

Laptop Specs:

Intel i7 9th gen

16gb ram

GTX 1660ti

Correct answer LucasGI

I figured out my problem. I tried disabling my GTX 1070 to see if it was the cause to my problem. Although it didn't work I discovered that disabling my Intel graphics fixed the issue. Premiere Pro crashed after disabling it and then it started working like it should. I'm not sure why Intel graphics was the problem but I can still use both dedicated GPUs.

My understanding is that Premiere can only utilize one GPU so I don't know what side-effect might occur with two GPUs installed.

Also, what are the specs of video being worked on, Sequence and Export settings (screen grabs are great!), and hard drive configuration?

Thanks

In Nvidia Control Panel I made it so Premier Pro can only use the RTX 2070 although I don't know if it is actually using it properly. I think the video is 1080p@30fps. I haven't exported but the Sequence settings are default with ARRI Cinema as editing bote with a time base of 23.976 FPS at 1080p. Premiere Pro, my project and cache files are all on an SDD.

Editing in a sequence with a frame rate different than the source can affect performance and quality. Is there a specific reason you are working with 30p clips in a 24p sequence?

Thanks
