Can I use pcie riser for optiplex 3240 aio?

Also is this compatible if Im gonna use it as pcie riser?

Heres the link: https://shopee.ph/product/238616254/7737030147?smtt=0.51323081-1610921716.9

Also could I get a problem on display if I use this?

 

Sorry for may question I cant find any video about using pcie riser on aio computer.

I doubt it would work, the aio probably won't have a pcie 1x slot, plus even if it does you'll probably need to keep part of the pc permanently disassembled and the bandwidth of the slot is pretty low iirc- meaning you most likely won't get much performance out of your gpu in most applications even if the stars align for everything else- from what I see it could be as bad as 40%+ less as compared to a standard 16x slot.. So basically, I wouldn't try it. 

I am NOT a professional and a lot of the time what I'm saying is based on limited knowledge and experience. I'm going to be incorrect at times.

Im guessing you are planning on putting an external GPU in it for "better" performance. Id say it isnt worth it, since that is first of all a PCIe x1, going through a single USB (probably gen 3) to a PCIe x16. That isnt enough bandwidth for an external GPU, so you wont be getting better performance.

How about this one it uses a hdmi at the  end?

That one would probably give you more bandwidth, but still really low for an external gpu. If you still decide to buy this, you should know that you also need an external PSU to power it.
