This is my first PC Build:

i7 7700k
Asus Strix Z270H Mobo
Asus Strix GTX 1060

I have connected all the wires that I thought were needed and I thought were the right place but evidently not. When I plug in my Computer, I get a red light on my GPU and some red lights dashed around my Motherboard. I'm not sure I plugged in the Power SW, -P LED, +P LED in the right place (my first suspicion) although a multitude of things could not be in correctly. The LED switches are both 1 pin, and the Power SW is 2 pin. I plugged these 3 in the bottom right of the motherboard trying in different pins of that area. Any help?

That's no a MoBo I am familiar with or can find.

Your MoBo Manual should show good instructions on how to do this .... if you correct the model number, i can point you to it.

Did you plug in the EPS cable from the PSU to the MoBo near the CPU ?
Did you plug in the 8-pin PCI-E cable from the PSU to the GPU ?
Did you plug in the CPU cooler fan to the CPU fan header on MoBo ?
IS the RAM in the two same color slots as shown in the pics in the MoBo manual ?

From page 1-11

The motherboard comes with a standby power LED. The LED lights up to indicate that
the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode. This is a reminder that you should
shut down the system and unplug the power cable before removing or plugging in any
motherboard component. The illustration below shows the location of the onboard LED

Monitor cable is connected ?
OSD on monitor set to proper input ?
CPU fan plugged in ?
Cleared CMOS since plugging in EPS cable ?

I bought the Mobo/Cpu/fan as a bundle deal since it was quite cheap so the fan was already plugged in. Yet there are still 4 cables from the CPU fan that I haven't plugged in.

2 x 4 pin (small - horizontal)
1 x 4 pin *input* (small - horizontal)
1 x 3 pin (medium, with blue wire, red wire, green wire, and 3 black wires for them)

The 2 x 4 pin have the wires that I specified just above (1 is black and green, 1 is black and blue)

Sorry if this doesn't make sense, I can upload images to imgur if that'd be better.

Edit: added unfit album of cables as described above
