BITPHENIX GHOST CASE HAS MORE FAN SPACES THAN THE ASUS MOTHERBOARD HAS CHA_FAN CONNECTORS ON Z87 PRO AND THE GRYPHON Z87 MOTHERBOARDS. IN THE MANUAL IT STATES THAT THE CPU_FAN HEADER IS 12 WATTS (1 AMP) MAXIMUM. IF SO, THEN WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM RATING FOR THE CHASSIS FAN PWM CONNECTORS?

well you can easily use adapters to avoid running more than one fan on a chassis fan connector or use a fan controller

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811992005. still i would use a splitter for 2x 0.33A fans on a header http://www.amazon.com/3-Pin-Splitter-Cable-Connectors-Length/dp/B00FPYS9ZY/ref=sr_1_8?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1397513122&sr=1-8&keywords=Computer+Case+Fan+Y-Splitter+Power+Connector+Adapter+Cable but wouldnt run them full speed though
