It's not using a hardware renderer. That's why your video card is practically idling.
It's rendering 2d images via the software renderer (CPU)


Think there's any chance we'll see hardware rendering in a patch? I'm not completely sure myself how much work such an endeavor would take, but it would greatly lessen the need for further multithreading( which I've heard is very difficult to program) and at the same time allow much more stuff to happen both on-screen and in the game in general, since it frees up CPU cycles. Think it's too much to hope for?
