EDIT
upon closer inspection, that case has its own fan controller built in.
You board can control 5 fans(2 PWM only and 3 either if other Asus boards are any indication). I would try the built in controller to see how you like it first. Connect the cpu fan to the board so it can control it.

Mobo has CPU fan, CPU opt fan, and 3 chassis fan connectors.
I have Corsair H50 liquid cpu cooler. I connected the pump to CPU fan and the radiator fan to CPU opt fan connectors.
DIYPC Skyline-07-G has 1 rear, 1 top (the other one is used for the radiator), 2 fronts (HDD), 1 bottom, and 2 side fans. It also has 1 power molex for fan controllers. Is it better to connect all the fans to the case's fan controller or to distribute the fans to the chassis fan connectors (2+2+3) and not use the fan controller at all.

My only concern over connecting all fans to the board would be power handling. I know my Maximus IV Gene-z seems to use the same controller for all 3 plugs(it almost seems like they are already split).
As long as the fans do not draw too much power you can certainly do it that way if you wish. If all fans had been pwm, splitting is quite a bit more easy since they actually use 12 volts and just get a speed signal from the board.
I am not sure if the board will control the cpu fan if it is just a 3 pin one.
