Is this card compatible with Premiere Pro CC 2018 12.1.1?

It will work with CUDA MPE GPU acceleration enabled, but don't expect great performance with it.

Should I then use Mercury Playback Engine Software only?

Not recommended. GPU acceleration, in this case, would still be faster than software only. In my post above, everything is relative. Sure, the GT 1030's performance won't be great compared to higher-end, more expensive GPUs in the GeForce 10 series. But if that's all you can afford, it would still be a lot better than nothing.

That setup is workable, but less than ideal. You really need at least another disk in that system in order for Premiere Pro to run "smoothly".

To that, no. Lots of GPU effects will severely tax that GT 1030 to begin with because not only is the GT 1030 a weakling of a GPU by current standards, but it also doesn't have enough VRAM to handle all that. In fact, it barely meets Adobe's minimum requirement for the amount of VRAM to even run Premiere Pro at all (in GPU accelerated mode).
And because all GT 1030s have only 2 GB of VRAM to begin with, once that VRAM gets depleted, Premiere Pro's MPE renderer will always get slammed into the software-only mode (no GPU acceleration whatsoever) for the remainder of the entire rendering job with absolutely no indication at all. And then, you'd run into the fact that you have relatively little system RAM - and when that gets depleted, the PC will start utilizing your systems OS/programs drive heavily, thereby slowing down your renders substantially.
And speaking of the OS drive, the Samsung 970 EVO is one of those m.2 PCIe SSDs that have a turbo write cache, which treats part of the NAND as SLC cache. But when that small cache is depleted, the true write speed of that SSD kicks in - in this case, the true sequential write speed of the 970 EVO is only about 1 GB/s. Far from the 2+ GB/s that the drive is advertised at.

GT 1030 not support NVENC...
True. A GTX-level GPU (in the 10 series, a GTX 1050 or higher) is required for NVENC. GT level GPUs lack this feature.

The Dell Desktop that I am going to order comes with a NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) GTX 1050ti with 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Memory.
