Hello fellow people, i just recently bought a sound card for my desktop, well, a sound card for a desktop that didn't have pci-e x1 slot, and, my home desktop did, anyways, i put it in, and it sounds great! but, i cant get my microphone boosted, i literally have to yell into it for the system to play back quitely.... so, any ideas?

I dont think so, i will look when i get home, but, i do not exactly have the box anymore...:pfff:

EDIT: the microphone kinda looks like this:
The cord is just for the microphone jack, just the 3.5mm plug...
EDIT2, Well, i have the microphone plugged in to the buit in sound card, but, having sound come out of the Asus card, Will this have a performance drop? And, is there anyway to get it to be boosted? Since, i've heard there is better quality...
