If you are supplying the LEDWiz cards with 5v from your power supply then I don't think that there is any problem.

I think you are fine either way.. either direct to motherboard.. or to a PCI add-on card.
I have run into weird problems when I tried to plugin my ledwiz to a powered USB hub, so I'd avoid that scenario if possible.
