How much can you split an ARGB 3-pin Asus motherboard header?

Go to solution Solved by Lurick,

With a proper RGB hub, I'm not really sure if there is an upper limit or not. I've seen 8 way splitters like this one:

I have an Asus Crosshair VII motherboard with two 3-pin ARGB headers. I would like to invest in some Phanteks Halo Lux RGB fan ARGB-ifiers, but I don't know how much I can split my ARGB headers. I have a 120cm 60led ARGB strip connected to one, but I have another port. Would this be enough for an RGB waterblock and 6 Phanteks Halo Lux ARGB things?

Wow where did you find this? I've been looking for something like this forever- something that draws power from something other than the header and works with Asus 3-pin ARGB. Wow.

 

Thanks Lurick!

Funny enough I was actually just searching to see if you could even split a header like that and happened to click on a thread that took me to that page :D
