Is there a way to make chassis fan behave as if it were cpu fan?

First why I connected it to the Chassis fan:
I only realized how hard it was to do it properly after I had the Noctua NH-D15 heatsink and fans all placeed. So I connected the power cable to the chassis fan 4-pin and made it so BIOS ignored there not being a CPU fan running.

So far so good and temps all stable, but I'd like to be extra sure so that the system knows that if cpu temp increase/decrease that specific chassis fan should increase/decrease perhaps a bit more directly.

From the research I have done it seems Speedfan can help me do this, but I do not know how to operate the program very well, if anyone can guide me I'd really be thankful :)
 


I'd prefer a software solution if possible, but if buying hardware is the only option, then I'll probably prefer re-assembling the cpu cooler.
