By the looks of things your loop is going:
res-pump-rad correct?

It would be more efficient for the loop to go:
res-pump-cpu-gpu/s-rad-res

true but ive read that the pump can create friction which creates heat so i want the liquid to be as cool as possible

With that pump the coolant will be flowing fast enough not to pick up the excess heat created by the pump. Even if the pump creates heat it would be so minute that you wouldn't see much change in the temps anyway. Having the rad before the res means the res will be getting cooled liquid, you don't want to add un-cooled liquid to the res because that would be worse for the temps anyway.
