I'm in Mexico. Budget is not a problem. Fans are Pure Wings 2 by be quiet, 3 pin.

I do want them to change speed and... that's it. Cable management: just functional, nothing fancy. 

Are you using the same fans for the cpu cooler?

In that case, go for basic non-powered fan splitters. 2-4 way splitters like these would work fine.

Hello everybody,

this is my first time building a pc since 2012, so... everything is new for me.

I'm waiting for 6 Pure Wings 2 fans by be quiet! to arrive and I have an Aorus Elite B450 motherboard.

I'm not sure if I should buy a hub, splitter or anything similar to connect them to the motherboard or if I can do it without that.

Could you help me?

Thanks a lot.

Where are you shopping / located? Budget? What case and fans are you using? Are they 3 or 4pin?

Whether a hub or splitter is preferred would depend on your preferred style of cable management or fan control.
