Hello. I'm wondering if it is possible to use the custom RTX A5000/A5500 MXM cards Lenovo makes for their P3/P360 Ultras on a regular motherboard (PCIe x16). If so, what additional parts are required?

I believe there are two parts to getting them to work:
1. Connecting the mxm male to PCIe x16 female (the perpendicular angle of the mxm male connector to the card might be a problem)
2. Powering the GPU, which is served by 100mm MB to MXM power cable (FRU:5C10U58625) at least for the A5500 (is this a proprietary connector?)
