My XFX Radeon RX 5700 XT RAW II seems to work fine running off board power on my 4,1 -> 5,1. I used two mini 6 pin to 8 pin (6+2) cables

Here's a mini 6 pin to 8 pin cable. Then get a mini 6 pin to 6 pin cable.

I'm not an expert, but the internet says that card maxes out at 262 watts, and I think 2 power cables + the PCIe slot can provide 75 watts each, 225 total.

So the card can't use as much power as it wants to which might make the system unstable/kill the psu. You could do a Pixlas mod, but that is outside of my experience. You might also be able to tap into the power cable in the optical drive bay, but I'm not sure.
