MY MOTHERBOARD http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4602#ov

MY POWER SUPPLY http://www.corsair.com/en-us/vs-seriestm-vs550-550-watt-power-supply

the motherboard has a 1 x system fan header

so if i buy this http://www.amazon.it/exec/obidos/ASIN/B004J3P658/tomsforum-21?tag=tomsforum-21

will it handle 2x http://www.amazon.it/Coolermaster-R...id=1407867996&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=CM+JETFLO

(4.8 watt each)

and will i still be able to use the speed adapters that come with the jetflo fans? the ones on the left in this picture: http://www.modders-inc.com/wp-content/uploads/image//2013/10/31.jpg
 
You might have a problem there.

The speed adapters for the JetFlo fans have four-pin PWM connectors, but the connection point on the adapter that plugs into the power supply only has support for three-pin fan connectors on the fan connection ends. So, they physically will not fit together.
 
If you use that NZXT fan hub I would would not run it off a motherboard header since it may draw too much juice for one header. Get an adapter that will allow you to connect it to a 4 pin molex connector and run that hub directly from the PSU. Or, does the hub come with one of those already?

i never mentioned a hub...

i want to buy this http://www.amazon.it/Phobya-300mm-M...qid=1407943022&sr=1-1&keywords=molex+to+4+pin

to connect two of these http://www.amazon.it/Coolermaster-R...id=1407867996&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=CM+JETFLO with the speed adapters that come with the fan...

but im not sure the two will be compatible with the speed adapter

If this hasn't been answered above, you may want to call the company that makes the speed adapters and ask them if you can't wait (which from your premature 'bumping' behavior seems like you cannot). :thup:
