17?! lol Do you not have a rgb/fan controller for your fans? And no, hooking 17 items into 1 header is not only a bad idea but most have limits on how much they can push so more than likely, not all components will work.

I think people are missing that you're talking about a HUB and not a HEADER on the motherboard.

Either way, you'll have to look up the max amperage for each header on the hub. Then look up the amperage for each fan, SSD, Block etc. Don't go over the amperage that the header is allowing for. If it's a 2 amp header, but each fan takes 0.4 Amps, you COULD run 5, but I'd stick to 4 to leave some wiggle room for power.

Some headers will only allow up to a certain number of LEDs, that's something to look at as well.

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.

You need to check hubs max Amps per header. They are usually something like 2-3A/header if hub uses 12V SATA power. Mobo headers are like 3A, but you really should doublecheck that too.
