The problem with the prebuilt computers such as that optiplex is usually they are not built for upgradabiltiy.

If I'm not mistaken, it will come with a proprietory low wattage and poor quality PSU that isn't really made for dedicated GPUs. Now the RX560 can usually be powered through the PCIe slot alone without additional connections, but ultimately you would likely need a better quality and higher wattage PSU.

Unfortunately from the owners manual, it is indeed a proprietory MB and PSU, so you couldn't buy any ATX standardised PSU to swap in it's place.

Look at the inside of your PC. If the longer expansion slot is closest to your power supply then the RX 560 card you linked will not fit. You're limited to a single slot-width card (the RX-560 you linked is dual-slot width).

Power supply is too weak to use that video card.
