Hello.

 

As the title states, I will be building a custom loop soon and I don't have enough rgb headers on my Zenith Extreme. The Cpu block, pump and gpu block will all have an rgb led connector. Is it possible to purchase the https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-rgb-4-way-splitter-cable#ow_alert_box and connect all three of the products to one header or is it pulling to much power since in the "Read Before You Buy" box it says: 

Please refer to motherboard manufacturer manual or RGB controller manufacturer manual for LED type compatibility, maximum power load and maximum allowed LED strip length.

I have no idea on how to tell if it the power load is too much. 

 

If I missed any important details just say so and thank you in advance for helping me!

You can check how much load your devices are each and total them together, it just needs to stay under the maximum rating of the motherboard's RGB headers, for this baor dit's 2amps.
