I am wondering if this set up is safe? I have currently installed 4 120mm Deepcool Windblade 1300 rpm in my case and then used a hub(also deepcool) into my motherboard. My board has only 1 header for chassis fan.

System:
Asus h81m-d
core i5 4460
zotac gtx 1060 amp! 6gb
12 gb ram 1600mhz DDR3
2x 1tb 7200 rpm HDD

Most of the boards support max 1 ampere so:
1*12=12w max
Your fans 4*2.4w=9.6w.
So you should be safe ,nonetheless I suggest taking a look at manual or ask Asus customer support to make sure about max ampere the fan header supports and it's being safe to use 4 fans accordingly.

Thank you for the feedback. I have read the manual and it says the header gives 1A of power. I think its safe then?
