Just building my First pc and was wondering how to get the push pull config to work with my fans? So I'm going to be putting the x62 at the front of the case (nzxt h700) and then the 3 included fans at the top, I just wanted to know doe the stickers have to be facing inside of the case when i put them in the aio to pull air in?

So fans on the right side of AIO if your looking at the case through the glass and stickers face in the case? and then at the top stickers face towards the motherboard?

I'm sorry if its confusing but just trying to make sure i get it done right on the 1st try :)

Usually from what I've seen, the stickers usually are in the way of the airflow. For example, you want the air to flow DOWN into the case, you would want the sticker facing DOWN into the case. Likewise, if you want air going UP, the sticker needs to face UP. As Jay32267 said, there's also arrows molded into the fan that tell you which way the fan spins and which way the air flows.
I don't know about the stickers....but it's very common for fans to have arrows embossed in the plastic that indicate the direction of airflow....OR....the arrow indicates the direction that the blades spin and from this you can figure out which way the air goes.

jay32267 is right. Almost all fans have BOTH types of arrows molded into their sides. One points straight through the fan and shows air flow direction. The other points around the fan and shows blade rotation. That's all assuming the fan wiring is correct, and it is hard to get that wrong.
