Need some help on Gigabyte B450 Aorus M!!

[Hold-Ma-Beer]

I have a corsair carbide Spec-01 case witha Gigabyte b450 Aorus M. I was looking ofr some RGB fans for my case. I'm completely new to this stuff and this pc is my first build. 

I can see only 2 fans headers on my motherboard (sys-fan 1 & sys-fan 2) and my case has place for 3 fans. Also the case fan I am looking is Antec spark 120mm rgb ( That's only in my budget )

Help pls, can i connect 3 fans to my mbd or not??

You cannot. You need to get fan splitters and connect them that way

Some antec cases have built in RGB ports that has a header running to either a led button on the front or you can house your reset sw. Other than that you could get a antec prizm 120mm set of either 3 fans and 2 led strips or a pack of 5 fans that include this rgb controller if you have a extra sata power plug to spare

You can get cheaper fans on aliexpress, and also pick up some splitters or molex to 4 pin adapters.

But these fans work at 12V... So.. a fan splitter would connect 2 fans with one header right? Will they be able to work at their max output?

I'm newbie plz..

I'm also tight on budget so I cant go for the prism brother.

It's not like you need the fan right now, and also it's probably less than 2 weeks to actually get to you.

Just google molex to 3 pin or 4 pin adapter, 4 pins will work with both types of fans.

Quote me if i'm wrong:

So i buy a molex to 4 pin adapter and connect the molex to the psu and the 4 pins to my fan?

Yes, but it will run at 100% of it's speed at all times over molex.

And the splitter?

My doubt about the splitter is that will there be enough power available for the fans?

I will use the splitter to connect 2 12V fans to a single 4 pin header. Will they get enough power to run at max speeds?

It should have plenty of power, fans don't draw much power usually.
