I will be running 3x the stock fans in the Primo, the 140SP fans. Then, I will have 16 Helix 120 fans.
My ASRock Extreme 6 Z97 has the following:
2 x CPU Fan Connectors (1 x 4-pin, 1 x 3-pin)
3 x Chassis Fan Connectors (1 x 4-pin, 2 x 3-pin)
1 x Power Fan Connector (3-pin)
With the fans I have the Helix seem to pull about 2.5 watts (over compensating here) while the Phantek 140SP fans are less than 2 watts. But, what about at start up? My concern is then since I won't be running these at full speed.
Can I get away with two hubs, one running like 8x Helix and 2x Phantek with the other running 8x Helix and 1x Phantek? That's less than (using their numbers) the 30 watts, but it makes me nervous. Would going with three simply be the better way to do this?
