Notarget got them. Mouse is Logitech G400 and the Keyboard is a Sidewinder x4. Headset is incredibly old, and I've had like 8 pairs of them just because I'm familiar with the sound: Creative fatality. I like my cheap peripherals, they do they job. ;P Mic is a Samson CO1U condenser mic and the monitor is Dell Ultrasharp U2312HM.
Posters are of Walter from Breaking Bad, 2 LoTR ones and the other is from the Dark Knight rises. Crap movie, I just like Bane, lol.
I feel like I need to do a proper post about my setup like all you guys haha.

Thought I was gonna test my phone camera and upload a few pictures of my main rig before I install my Titan and get my RMA replacement for my H100i. Cable management is so so atm due to taking the H100i out temporarily. The cooler that is in there now is a H60.

Neat build. Are you planning a big GPU upgrade soon, or just don't game that much?
WoW Character: Wintel - Frostmourne (OCE)
Gaming rig: i7 7700K, GTX 1080 Ti, 16GB DDR4, BenQ 144hz 1440p

thank you, yep , I was aiming to possibly in a month or 2 time get a 7970 or 680 (price depending really), also noticed I havent got a decent shot of my internals, looked better at the time I guess, will try get a better photo at some point, I do game a lot, was aiming to actually buy the GPU once I got that built up, but the urge to go skiing was too much :P
I will be doing an updated shot of this, gonna repaint those gold 'stripes' on the front, it can be taken off mind you, really really dont like the gold, but was the cheapest variation oddly enough
**** Today was my backup-day!
I use those 2 Lindy copy/clone stations with USB3.0. I use this solution for my PC and I really like the USB 3.0 speed and the cloning method HDD1->HDD2 without a connected PC a lot. A fast way for external backups but ugly as hell.
For my macbook I still use the very good integrated TimeMachine (Software) -> TimeCapsule (NAS, 2TB) + Safe Capsule (TimeCapsule Backup via USB). The only bad thing is the transfer speed, ist just sooooooooooooooooo slow.
What solution are you guys using to backup?

So I discovered that my G19 was having some sort of weird issue where the lcd screen would continually blink on and off and make everything but the basic keys unusable so I had to open it up and check out what was happening. Turns out that the wires that connect to the LCD aren't properly insulated and that was causing the problem, so I just wrapped them in some insulation tape and it seems to have fixed it. Cant believe this sort of thing is overlooked so easily, people are having problems left, right and centre and logitech insists that it has nothing to do with them or their hardware and that it's a motherboard issue. So for the next few days my keyboard will be a G19 just to see if it's working properly.
The wires in question
Sloppy job but I couldn't really do much short of pulling the pcb out because it's so cramped.

Cloud Backups wont work for me, I have many RAW/JPG pictures from photography and with all those files + the edited versions etc. it is a huge amount of data to backup.
@Marest
I just saw the pictures from your "Project Red Piranha" and the clean build with all those hidden cables just looks outstanding esp. with the red/black theme.
In comparison my own gaming PC was put together in 60 mins and all I did was to make sure everything is well connected. The inside is full of loose cables, oversized cooler for CPU/GPU for a silent system and nothing more. Maybe I should spend more buildtime for my next gaming pc.
