I want to know if there is a motherboard that has at least 8 fan connectors. I am getting a Zalman Z11 Plus ATX Mid Tower Case. The case comes in with three 120mm fans and two 80mm fans, and I'm getting an extra three 120mm fans. In total that makes 8 fans. I was originally going to get the Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 3, but it only had 7 fan connectors and the fan connectors or mostly at the bottom but the Zalman has two fans on top.
Can anyone help me!?

Have you thought about buying a motherboard with a few fan headers and have the rest of the fans run off a fan splitter?

Swiftech, Phobya and a couple of other makers make them and they are reliable.

you can buy a fan header splitter, like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... BUT, i would recommend you do not use 8 fans, as it will just be loud, and give you little to no benifet over 3-4 fans.
