Can the DELL Inspiron 3656 support a GTX 1050 TI GPU?

240W PSU? Just barely. But yes, it should be fine. Here is a video you might be interested in. One of the PCs in the video is the Inspiron 3650, similar to yours. Pick up the Dell part of the video around 4:15.

What are the most preferable GPUs that can handle both 1080p gaming and the 240W PSU?

The GTX 1050 Ti is the only choice. The fastest gfx card at present that can run on 300W OEM PSUs. What CPU does your Inspiron have?

It has the AMD FX-8800P, also this is my friend's PC and I want to help him upgrade this PC. Will it affect performance even if I upgrade the GPU?

Wait. Isn't the FX-8800p a new notebook processor? Isn't the Dell Inspiron 3656 a desktop PC?

AMD FX-8800P Radeon R7 12 Compute Cores 4c+8g 2.10 ghz is what it exactly says. I have no idea about this processor as this is the first time I saw it. Also, can you change this unit's power supply? And if so, how much would a bottleneck processor affect gaming?

They must be using a notebook APU in that desktop. (?)
I'm not sure on that particular model Dell. It is a bit strange in its design and might have some proprietary connections not found of retail PSUs. Jump over to the Dell forums and post that question if you don't get an answer here.
