Hello, I am seeking to install a GPU into my server by need the PCIE power connectors, I know that the motherboard has output plugs that are listed on the sight though I am struggling to find any information on them online.

Those... look more like input cpu power connectors rather than output connectors.  I think they’re meant  to power the CPUs and aren’t output at all.

Id try to solder you own connectors, If its the same as the 12v cpu power, its probably easy to get the, to solder to a pcie 8pin or cpin. Just check with a multimeter first.

with those servers, the psus are connected to the motherboard only(with the big connectors on the left), then the motherboard distrubtes the power to the drives and cards and other devices.

I suppose it would make PSU hotswap easier

That's a major intent with the design.
