If you plug them into a molex you will be unable to limit the voltage (and hence the speed) supplied to the fans. I am just using a couple 120 cooler masters. Since you are using an ROG board, which i am as well, it should warn you whenever your drawing too much power or have a voltage drop anywhere on you motherboard. I dont believe that 2 120's will pull more than 1 amp while also using 12 volts. The time when it is most likely to pull more amps is when it is speeding up quickly from a standstill. BUT i could be wrong so do double check the watt usage if that information is available.
I would not be too worried about your 120's burning up your CPU PWM though. Just from my experience
I agree, although the reason I mentioned the splitter is that some fans, including the Scythe Slipstream 1900 RPM fans I have here, draw more than 1/2 Amp (in my case, I believe it's .52A each). I would easily rather use a splitter than take any chances with my main board. However, his board turns out to have an OPT CPU_FAN header, so he can plug one fan into each header (I don't know how I missed this in the manual).
In fact, I'm looking at the manual right now, and I still don't see a OPT CPU_FAN listed. He should make sure of the label before using it.
Corsair replaced a mouse for me, and it took about a week to get the new one, and I'm in Canada. I can't speak for others, but I've had good experiences with them.
