Fan splitters?
We could use with some fan splitters or corsair products like the commander pro. Sucks building a beautiful case with 4 360 rads only to find out i dont have enough fan headers to power more than 2.

You should be able to connect all fans on all radiators in-game. I haven't found a situation yet where the fans for radiators don't spin after a computer build.

I've had it happen a few times. 4x 360 rads in the new thermaltake view 91 was a rog mobo. Maybe I needed to unable them and do it over. But I had 2 rads not spinning. Cpu temps in a dual gpu+gpu loop are crazy high as well. Tried it running gpu>gpu>gpu. Temps were 90c on gpu and 30 on gpus. Yes thermal paste was applied. Not really sure what was going on tried it the opposite way too.

That's because you're doing cooling wrong, for PCBS. In PCBS you get better cooling if you use a bunch of small single radiators instead of 4 large ones. Like, 7 x 140mm radiators would cool a lot better than 4x360's. Also remember to add case fans in every possible slot. Case fans reduce the temperature of water cooled components in PCBS, even if the case fans aren't on a radiator.
