2 radiator best configuration

Yo wuddup. Im about to start a custom watercooling build and want to know what the best configuration for my 2 radiators should be in regarding in what order the liquid flows in. 

Would it be best to run the pipes going, 1st radiator -> 2nd radiator -> cpu block -> gpu block -> pump/resevoir then back into 1st radiator.

Or should I do 1st radiator -> cpu block ->2nd radiator -> gpu block.

Sorry if its too confusing, but would it matter how I run the pipes or should I be fine whatever way I do it, Thanks.

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Wont matter on order. Just do it how it looks best. With the pump being fed directly or indirectly by the res.

The res has to feed the pump the rest of the loop does not matter,The rest of the loop you want to keep it as simple as you can,The shorter and the straighter you can run the tubing the best.The water is flowing at a speed where a rad between cpu and gpu won't matter.And what case are you using and what size rads are you going to use?
