what you are not taking into account is the game is constantly generating the whole world around you so everything you don't see is what the card is doing so while what you see doesn't seam like much the constant world wide traffic of ships planes and everything else is still being processed by your card even though it only renders them at a set distance. this is why the minimum specs are a joke and the "real" minimum ram memory and video card specs to run the game normally at normal settings should be double of what the game says they are. they only thing I would call accurate in the specs is the CPU since those listed (while outdated) are just fine for running the game.
hope that helps
