I havent even turned it on yet. My ram sticks still havent been delivered but i was and am really worried becasue the build was really sloppy.

 

You can't real tell if there's problem or not before turning it on. On first boot go to BIOS and check how temps are there. If they are climbing rapidly over 50C, you have bad mount. Saying from experience, I had bad mount on Intel stock cooler and let temps go to 60C (which was fine for CPU) before turning it off and remounting.

Could you please tell me what direction should the cooler be in. I faced it so that the RYZEN CPU LOGo matches the AMD logo. Is that how its suppost to be

Doesn't matter. Its down-draft cooler. Works all the way around.
