I have 4 fans + a DDC off one molex so you should be fine.

TBH you'd fill your case top to bottom with fans before you'd overload a rail on your PSU with average fans (Disclaimer: statement excludes those insane Delta fans)

Hmm i thought this but one of my 'fan only' molex connectors went boom taking a fan with it once.. aslong as you are careful it should be fine tho..

Get 3x one molex to 2molex cables, can get em on ebay for like 50p or something.

Then you got 4molex, from one!

I dont need any spliters, the connectors are one piece pass-through Molex connectors......

I was just wondering if it was possible and safe connecting like 5 fans to one molex. Thanks
