I'd like to add an intake fan to my pc. Since there is only one header for chassis fan i am considering using a y splitter on the sole header to power the existing exhaust and the intake fan that I'm adding. it's going to be a cheap low amp fan.
The one question id liked answered is the chassis fan header rated for 1 amp like headers on most other boards?
the name of the board is hp baker, ssid 8767.

@gamer321123 -- have you considered an adapter cable like this one:

If you have an unused SATA connector on your power-supply, this adapter may be used to power 1 or 2 case-fans.
