So I bought A lynx level 4. I wanna be able to use my laptop as a 2nd monitor but thats only available if bluetooth is built in(which it isnt but should be considering its a 1500$ ultimate config) I need suggestions on which one will fit. Youtube vids will help me install it. Just dont know which one I should buy...

ASUS makes some good Bluetooth PPCIE cards and USB adapters.

A PCIE card is also an adapter.   Most cards will have both WiFi and Bluetooth on one card.   I don’t know what motherboard you have in your build, but the example shown has just one full size PCIE graphics card slot, and all the other PCIE slots will be the short slots...that’s where the card you want will mount.   

The latest version of BlueTooth is 5.0.   

Amazon has quite a few that would work.   Search on Bluetooth 5.0 PCIE card.

Not my area. The OP didn't want just a USB dongle, but I DK why. What I saw was the dongle being good for periferals like keyboards, mice and printers, etc. but streaming to a laptop's monitor wasn't mentioned. If no one else knows, I'm sure DS could tell you.
