Vantec Stealth SF8025L, too much current for mobo fan header?

I'm considering getting one of these fans (80mm) and coupling it with my Alpha PAL8045 to cool my Barton chip. I have only one question about it though. At 100mA draw, will it burn out my motherboard's fan header? I have an EPoX 8RDA+ Rev. 1.1 if that matters.

Thanks for helping out.
 
100mA? Thats 1.2w with 12v. It should be fine on your mobo header. When you use a vantec tornado or the thermaltake Smart Fan 2 On full speed then you might consider plugging it into your PSU they draw like 8-10watts
