Displaylink dongle replacing GPU on i5-11400F?

Hi!
I just bought a computer running Windows 10 Home, powered by an Intel i5-11400F CPU. The computer has had its dedicated graphics card taken out (they are very expensive these days and some people therefore rob a new gaming computer off its graphics card and sell what is left to other persons not needing a gaming machine - like myself). As the "F" in the Intel CPU suggests, the CPU doesn't come with integrated graphics. While waiting for a proper GPU to arrive from abroad, could I use a Displaylink powered USB-adapter as a substitution for a GPU?
