Need Help with my Corsair AF120 LED White Fans

clarence

I need help with my case fans. It started to flicker when I added more fans to my case.

 

Fans that are in my case:
2 Cryorig QF120 balance edition

4 Corsair AF120 LED white fans.

I attached my back fan(Cryorig QF120 balance) to my sysfan 1 socket in my motherboard.
I attached my cpu air cooler fan(Cryorig QF120 balance) to my cpu fan socket in my mother board

I attached my 4 Corsair AF120 to my deepcool fan hub: http://deepcool.com/product/dcoolingaccessory/2013-12/12_663.shtml
and attached it to my sysfan 2 socket in my motherboard.

I tried to trouble shoot the issue. When I remove one of corsair fans from the fan hub, the flickering will stop. but when I attach all the fans, the corsair fans will all flicker again.

Here are my computer specs:

MoBo - msi b150m bazooka - I'm thinking that my mobo is the issue. It can't support enough power to all of my fans. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Processor - i7 6700 - locked
PSU - 520W seasonic evo ii m12 bronze 80+ bronze full modular
RAM - Corsair vengeance LED (2x 8gb) 32gb
HDD - 1tb Seagate

SSD - sandisk ultra II 960gb

Molex - Deepcool 350 rgb LED strip

Here is the video of my desktop

Seems to be it. You should either get a powered splitter if you want 4 fans on one header or move of the 4 fans to another header using a splitter.
