You have to look here at Feature Levels 11_xxxxx at the very least:
Looks like comps with integrated graphics (almost all non-gaming) are screwed.

IMHO, for 3D graphics tasks adequate for a trader (for example, the same 3D charts), it is not worth using such trickery as is offered now. Shooting sparrows with a cannon.

I looked for the sake of interest in VirtualBox, there is nothing there at all, I attached it.
it's about something else, about the necessity of such exaggerated requirements to PC hardware for MT5 work, it's clear that the conversation will end with "about the squad that goes with the speed of the last fighter" ;)

it's much more complicated, in brief, on a home PC Win10 Intel Core i3 with integrated graphics card - MT5 with DX11 works without problems.
and on a laptop Win10 Intel Core i3 with discrete video card NVIDIA - MT5 c DX11 does not work ((( , but the laptop copes with all the tasks assigned so far
Everything's great, but...
... how much milk does this cow give?

Put the question on a different plane. For example, HOW this cow gives information.
Money can also be asked from "mum" - for those who need a cow with milk. And those who get it themselves - they need it.
IMHO.
Guys, try this
I checked, in general this solution works - I managed to run the first example from the article even in a virtual machine with an incomprehensible VirtualBox video card driver.
I downloaded WindowsKit from your link, but it's not clear what I installed and I didn't find the necessary dxcpl.exe after installation, I googled dxcpl.exe, put it in the System32 folder and ran.....
in general this is a working solution, but you need to install the software correctly or figure out where the dxcpl.exe went - downloading from the Internet no idea what is also not an option, on a virtual machine it is not a pity - tomorrow I will delete the virtual disc and copy the backup, but on the PC that I do not want to download no idea what.
if I'm still working on this issue, I'll try to report back.
I removed almost everything from VirtualBox that I had just installed - 2.9GB, I left the downloaded file dxcpl.exe:
ran the last example from the article:
everything works and does not slow down, on a fully emulated video card from VirtualBox ..... it's a mundane matter, of course, but definitely the MT5 developers have set excessive requirements to the PC hardware.
I have a suggestion if you want to promote gaming or graphical application or one screen application.
Make a switch with mt4/mt5 application like
-singleappmode windowed templatename.tpl theea.ex4/ex5
-singleappmode fullscreen templatename.tpl theea.ex4/ex5
When someone runs application with switch metatrader will just open one chart apply template and attach the EA. All other things will be hidden only shown if EA allows using a property or function.
Like show controls, show menubar etc. Or it could be showdefaults.
In this way MetaTrader can become serious graphical application or single ea user application.
I know it could be hard to make or require some company level decisions , just my suggestion to improve meta trader.
