Why even go to that extreme? I'm gonna have two Reservoirs but the Bay one is strictly for show and as a sight glass into my loop to tell me when I need to add more coolant. That would be the only way I recommend two Reservoirs unless you have 2 separate loops needing coolant reserve or unless you have a system with a Res after each Reservoir with one of the more powerful pumps driving the whole thing.
I'm gonna set mine up like you have your Bay drawings only the inlet tube is strictly fill and the outlet tube is gonna feed directly into the System Reservoir which will not have any flow back to the first Reservoir.
Besides I don't think you have a reasonable idea how difficult it will be to get your drawing(either of them) to work properly in that limited amount of space. I don't even have a Reservoir in my 5.25 atm and I can tell you for a fact the amount of room to work is almost non existent. I've got small hands an I had a helluva time trying to plug my fans back in with the tubes in the way.I'm not trying to talk you out of it but I think you really need to get your hands in there working with Compression fittings before you jump into action putting your plan together. You better have a REALL large case. I've got a 932. There is no complaint of lack of room. The 5.25 bay however gets REEEEEEEAAAAALLY small the more kit you stuff into it.

How does it cool the GPU if it's split using a Y fitting? "Path of least resistance."
