Well, I'm planning on buying the 3 fan pack of Corsair HD120 plus the lighting node pro (to connect the led of each fan into one place).

 

Regarding the 4pin fan connector... Is a good idea to buy one of these:Screenshot_20170917-212617.jpg.84f23f8b8e0ae7a2bf752d9c2fae4dc9.jpg

 

For what I read on forums it's not recomendable to put more than 2 fans per fan connector on the Mobo.

 

Any advice will be helpful.

Thank you.

Yes that will work if you want to control them as a group but just note that you don't exceed the max current rating for your fan header. You can if needed get power splitters such as these as long as the fans are 4 pin PWM.

Silverstone has a $15 splitter that takes sata power to eliminate this problem... I would grab it and never worry 

They will run at full speed all the time, right?

If its set to run at max in the bios or speedfan etc..yes. otherwise it'll follow whatever pwm fan curve you set for the header you plug it into. Since your using same fans they will all go down to same rpm~
