Fan compatibility

I can count at least 2 fan headers so you don't need a splitter/controller.

Yes but OP needs DC fans and not pwm 

I could be wrong but I don't remember seeing DC connectors on that board

I'm not an expert on fans. but if they are 3-pin they work fine with a 4pin port.

@gloop are you 100% sure? I’m pretty sure there’s a CPU fan header and one sysfan header

That would make two headers. Do you need a third?

 

If so, a fan splitter will be fine. I've used multiple splitters on really cheap motherboards.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I need two sysfan headers, yes.

In which case, any cheap splitter will do.

Although, there does seem to be two fan headers aside from the CPU fan. One above the PCIe x16 slot and one at the bottom of the motherboard

Oh yeah, I see them now. And 3-pin fans can work with those headers, right?

Theoretically speaking yes 

The 4th pin isn't actually used for power
