It depends on the situation. Splitting the input might help isolate the issue with the case fan.

Hey everyone, I've just noticed my back case fan isn't working so I tested it on the front case fan input and it works again which to me suggests the connector for the back case fan is faulty (Or maybe doesn't power up until under load but i cant see why it wouldn't) anyway, I'm thinking about getting a fan splitter and putting it against the header where the front fans are plugged into. I've read it's only safe if it doesn't straw more power than the motherboard can provide but I'm not sure how much that is. Here's my build: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/jH8MnQ Here's the splitter I'm thinking of using: https://www.pbtech.co.nz/product/CABSTT1...ension-Pow Or this one if i can get away with 3 https://www.computerlounge.co.nz/shop/co...yAQAvD_BwE Appreciate all the help I can get, I'm not that knowledgeable on these issues.
Reviewed the manual at the provided link; the nearest info appears on page 14, but the amplifier isn’t visible.
Received a response from Gigabyte, but it omitted the amperage details. They advised using a fan splitter or hub at your own discretion, noting they only test one fan per header.
