Can I change fan speeds to fans plugged into CPU fan headers?

I am using the MSI z97 gaming 5 motherboard. It has 2 CPU fan headers, and 3 system fan headers, my problem is that I have too many fans and have to use the CPU fan headers. However, the CPU fan headers act as though they were molex cables in that they keep that fans running at a maximum 1400 rpm. Changes within my bios yield no results for the CPU fan headers; only for the system fan headers. I wanted to know if it was possible to change the speeds with a third party application.
