Im building a new computer, my first computer, I was wondering what extra cables I would need for all my fans and what not. I have Define S from Fractal Design, 3 AF120 Quiet Edition at the top and front of my case. As for the power supply, it is a Corsair RMx 550W 80+ Gold Fully Modular. It'd be great if anyone could link something a solution for the top, and front fans. I also have 2 1TB Hard Drives, 1 750GB Hard drive, and one Kingston 120GB SSD, and a Corsair H55 CPU Cooler.

That is cheapest. Some case fans come the MOLEX adapters. You can run the fans that way also.
Your motherboard will have connections for some number of fans. You can find the user's guide on-line and figure out how many fans connections there are. Then it is just a question of how many fans the case has vs how many motherboard connections.
 


If I , lets say, only had 2 fan headers, and 4 fans, would you suggest to then get two fan splitters?
