Hello, I just swapped motherboards out and my new motherboard only has 3 fan headers and only 2 of those can actually control fan speed through speedfran.

I was wondering if there was some kind of powered splitter out there that would let me plug all 6 fans into one fan header and be able to control the voltage/speed using Speedfan.

This build is only temporary so I don't want to spend a bunch of money on a fan controller.

1) too many fans (aka too much power draw) on one header may damage the motherboard
2) why do you need to control the fans? a well made/designed computer shouldn't need any input/monitoring to run correctly
