Need 9 fans with only 5 headers

[Metro]

Hello

 

I am going to get the MSI X99 Godlike and I have seen it only has 2 CPU fan 4 pin connectors and 3 case 4 pin fan connectors, I will be doing push pull on an Corsair H110GTX and I would like another 5 fans on my case, what would you recommend doing for it.

 

Thanks

Just get fan splitters. I just bought a 3 way PWM splitter for project Frankenstein, works great.

I would just use a y splitter, that's what I'm currently doing for some of my fans.

Group the ones that are together split with Y splitters.

Would it handle 2 Noctua NF F12 Industrial PPC IP67 in one Motherboard header

I assume so, they both have the same 12v rating, although the NF-F12 non industrial ones need half the input power/current (But they are very eco friendly)

 

I'm not sure because I've never really had an interest in the industrial ones, but they may already come with a y splitter. I know the non industrial ones do.

Most fan headers have a 1 Amp rating so 3-4 fans per header is a good rule of thumb but as long as your are <70% to the max rating it's good.
