ExpertCenter D7 Mini Tower (D700MC) and Nvidia 3050 rtx GPU

Hi! 

Recently i bought ASUS ExpertCenter D7 Mini Tower (D700MC) witch has D700SC motherboard, and wanted to use my old MSI Geforce RTX 3050 AERO https://www.msi.com/Graphics-Card/GeForce-RTX-3050-AERO-ITX-8G-OC/Specification and this card needs 8-pin cable, but motherboard has only 6 pin cables, and they are in use and connected to motherboard.
https://www.asus.com/displays-desktops/tower-pcs/expertcenter/expertcenter-d7-mini-tower-d700mc/ clearly says that this Mini Tower can take Up to GeForce RTX™ 3060 NVIDIA® graphics but i cant use it here.
Is there a way how i could make my 3050 RTX work in D700MC?

Greetz!

Hi, thanks for assistance!

Lets say i buy ASUS Phoenix GeForce RTX™ 3050 GPU https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/graphics-cards/phoenix/ph-rtx3050-8g/ and replace it with MSI 3050 but still ASUS 3050 needs also 8-pin power cable, yet D700MC has no available 8-pin cables inside nor any other loose pin cables to plug into GPU. Or should PCI-E slot cover GPUs power needs?

D700MC is ASUS certified component right?

So, here is no solution how i can run RTX 3050 GPU on D700MC actually? Then why to advertise it so then?
