Hi everyone so I have a ASU’s z790 apex encore and the problem is it’s a brilliant motherboard but has limited fan headers. I’m looking to upgrade my case to a phanteks nv7 but the problem is I will be running more case fans then I currently have 5x phanteks d30-120 fans connected to just one fan header. I am looking to run my fans through a phanteks fan hub that I have but they all daisy chain together so would it be ok to run 5 fans daisy chained into one specked on the fan hub? Thanks everyone
 
Max power on that fan is under 2w, so even all five together is under 10w, which isn't that much. Don't know what fan hub you are using specifically, but looking at a random one on Phantek's website, it could handle 18w per channel, so it's probably no problem.
 
i was under the impression that phanteks recommend no more that 4 fan on a single header

each fan a Max Current of 0.15A / Max Power draw of 1.8W, so you need to see what your fan controller can put out over 1 header
 
I run 3x 3 D30 140mm on one header each and 2 140mm total 11 fans on My gigabyte board.

I cant individually plug each fan into itbas they daosy chaim togetjer so it will be like 3 fans on ome header on the controller and four fans on another header on the controller will that be ok?

I wouldn't stacking Y splitters on a hub.

How come you can't connect individual fans to the hub? It's fan power only doesn't have 3/4 pint RGB connector
 
d30's always d30's i love the fans.
im running 3 blocks of 3 so 9 in total

how ever looking at the NV7 i dont know why you will have 5 in one link but i dont see you having a problem.
Phanteks do say not to link more than 4 this could be down to power draw or RGB restrictions. the RGB's draw 0.45 amps so having about 2.5amp pulling over one header maybe a problem i dont know.
