I think I was a little unclear. It is two in and one out. What my concern is that if I run the setup, pump outlet > Y > Dual inlets on Rad > WW CPU block > Y > Maze4 GPU > Z chip NB > Pump inlet, that I will be hurting flow because of the fact that the high velocity water out of the pump outlet will be split by the Y and then rejoined at the bottom of the modified rad. So I am trying to find out if in seperating and then rejoining is there any performance loss and if possibly there is a better setup to use, such as going pump outlet to blocks.

Normally it would be a choice of higher velocity (pump outlet to cpu block) or cooler water (Rad to cpu block). And normally I would opt for the cooler water but my concern is that the process of seperating and rejoining would rob me of enough flow that choosing pump outlet to cpu block may be the better choice. Now if the seperating and rejoining (2 in 1 out) is no different then a normal one in one out then I will go with rad to cpu block.
