Hello i am building a pc, and i was wondering how do i connect 11 fans onto this motherboard. There are only 3 fan pins i can connect to to the motherboard, and im wondering how can i connect more on it. I heard that there are wires i can use to connect more? im not sure. If u can please link me wires that would workout 11 fans THANK YOU.

Yes the fans im using are 3 pins, so are there any split header u can recommend me? and i dont want it to connect to psu because i want to control the speeds. Thank youDon't know how to break this to you but you cannot control the speeds on 3 pin fans
You can only control the speed of 4 pin fans and I can't recommend any as I don't use them but just search on google 1 to 3 fan header 3 pin or something like that

dont u think running 7 fans PLUS another 4 from my push pull h100i be a little dangerous? i got 750w psu will that be fine?Dangerous how? I mean as long as you don't connect too many fans to the motherboard, ( Like what I mentioned before? with the 1 to 3 3 pin headers? Don't do that, it'll overload the motherboard) 750W can handle it and as long as you have it all connected I see no dangers

You would need to get 4 pin fans to be able to use fan controllers

Is there any use getting the fan controller, if im gonna run them on highest anywayyIf you plan on running all the fans at highest then there is no need but with 11 fans, it could get very loud, so I'd get all the fans, connect it to the motherboard/PSU , spend a week on the PC doing whatever you planned on doing as see if the noise is bearable or not, if it is really loud, then get fan controllers

But I'd just out a few on, in case they overload the actual adapter itself -

Remember when we were talking about the volts of the fans like all 7 fans will take 84 V plugged into the psu, will there be anything on my pc that might take some volts too? i got a i7-4770k, gtx 780 sc, 16gb ram. Or i dont need to worry about itYes you do
All components require power, but if you have a 750W power supply, there is little to worry about, there will be sufficient power -
