Would this work? (Dual Radiator Config)

So i was messing around with ideas of a thermodynamically efficient water cooling set-up that would allow for lower temps than the standard set up. So i came up with this. 

 

My idea was that on the first pull, the fans cool the water in the first rad, then the water goes to the second rad and already has a lower temperature, but is cooled off even more, allowing the air from the 2nd rad to be blown into the 1st but not to be as hot since it was already cooled. 

 

If that makes any since. 

 

I have attached a PDF with a drawn out explanation of my thinking.

its really not going to help at all the loop wont cool down further because the temp equalizes out once your system is running.

sub-ambient cooling can be problematic, so be warned that the condensation you'll experience will need addressing.
