Note: As of July 2016 no Apple computers support Open GL 4.3 which is required for bounding box emulation. Further updates can be found at https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT202823

=== Problems When Using Older Graphics Cards ===
=== Problems When Using Older Graphics Cards ===
Bounding Box emulation requires GPU-specific features that are not present on older GPUs (older than 3rd quarter 2012). As such, graphics cards without Direct3D 11 or OpenGL 4.3 support are no longer supported. In essence, only computers with GPUs: NVIDIA GeForce 400 series and newer, AMD/ATI Radeon HD 5000 series and newer, and Broadwell integrated GPUs (Intel HD Graphics 5300+) are supported by Dolphin for games requiring certain bounding box implementations. Using newer revisions with unsupported GPUs will lead to graphical glitches and softlocks. If game-breaking bugs are experienced, use revision {{revision|4.0-5124}} or lower as a workaround. For more information, refer to {{Issue|8405}}, {{Issue|8505}}, {{Issue|8270}}.
