Rads are not really that restrictive to flow most of the time. If you had a ton of cooling blocks then you might have issues but 3 cooling blocks and a filter isn't going to stop a D5 pump even with several rads.

 

Edit: I've seen posts of people running mobo block + CPU block + 2 or 3 GPU blocks + several rads on a single D5 without issue

A single D5 can handle pretty much any loop that will fit in a case. Radiators aren't really restrictive, so don't matter too much. Blocks are what restrict flow.

Ran 8 blocks, two 360 and one 280 rad. At another time I ran 4 blocks, 3 360 and 1 280 rads. Never had an issue. Even added a second pump to see what I was missing. Just flow rate obviously, with gave no benefit.
