Does anyone have any idea what the safe/relative max draw of voltage is normal for a fan header on a mobo? Im looking to combine 4 fans into one 3-pin molex
to run onto the fan header and wanted an idea if this will work due to voltage limitations on the mobo. mobo in sig. Fans are Cougar turbine

I have them on my 240 rad in a push/pull config.

any links or info is appreciated
 
on my mobo i have a cpu_fan header and a cpu_opt header next to each other. ED do you think if i went 2 and 2 i would be able to control all 4 together? does the voltage look better with 2 on each header?
 
You can easily run two of those fans off of one header. They only pull 2.4W each in a worst-case scenario.
