my question is how would i wire all these fans to my motherboard and also will it cause any problems? the fans all use 3 pin connectors and the mother board has 2 cpu headers (4pin) and 3 system fan headers (4pin)

in total 6 fans plus 1 cpu fan

my motherboard is a msi z87 g45

power supply is a cx750

The two easiest options are to use Y splitters like this or go with a fan controller such as the Sentry 2. Since the fans don't draw much power I don't think you'd have too many issues using the Y splitters, but for simplicity and aesthetics I would go with the fan controller. Plus, it'll allow you to adjust each fan speed individually.
