Solution
  • 1 x 4-pin CPU fan connector
  • 1 x 4-pin Water Pump connector
  • 5 x 4-pin system fan connectors
So, yes, 6 fans is possible with one use the 'pump' header. Usually just a more powerful fan header and/or one that can have the RPM scaling changed to show an accurate pump speed. (Pumps are generally wound differently than fans, and the actual RPM is half what shows on a normal fan header.)
