I recently bought a Deepcool Fan Hub, which is a 4x4-pin splitter. I will be plugging 2x DeepCool Iceblade PWM fans to the fan hub, which I will then plug it to any of my mobo fan headers. My question is, is that going to stress, or worse, even damage the fan header where I'll be plugging the fan hub? Is there some sort of limit per fan header?

Some are saying most fan headers can handle 1A at most. The problem is, the amperage of the fans are not specified in its website, except for the following:

My motherboard is a Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H. The rest of my fans are plugged straight to the PSU. A dedicated fan control is not an option, as I would like my fans to run at max speed at all times (except for the HSF, and the 2x fans I'll be installing to the front.)

So, is it ok to run 2 LED PWM fans on a single mobo header?
