I am building my first pc using a 780T Corsair case and Asus ROG Z270E Mobo with a Cryorig R1 Universal cooler. I have 5 Corsair AF 140mm LED Be Quiet fans and 2 Corsair 120mm LED Be Quiet fans used as case fans. I would like to connect all 7 fans to the Mobos headers. I'm wondering if I can use a 3-way fan splitter to connect 3 of the 140mm fans to one header? Is this safe, and can the header handle the amps? Also, if this is possible can I control the fans using bios?

Be Quiet haven't done any collaborative effort with Corsair so I think you're talking about the Quiet edition fans from Corsair. That being said are all the fans 3 pin or 4 pin. If 4 pin you can get a PWM splitter and make due with any header that does support true PWM signalling and have all your fans ramp up or down via a fan curve. If a 3pin fans, then yu can pick up a fan splitter and have a 2 way splitter on each of the fan headers on your board:

The 780T should come with a fan controller on the case, mind you.

My mistake, it is the quiet edition. They are all 4 pins. Would I be able to run 3 of the 140mm fans off one chassis header, using a 3-way PWN splitter? Or is that too many amps?

Can the 780t control 7 case fans?
