Qpad QH-85 mic problem

Hi guys,

So I've just bought a Qpad QH-85 and I'm happy with the sound but the mic is just terrible and very quiet..

It's too quiet and when I put on mic boost the sound quality gets really bad so that's not a solution.

I have RealtekĀ® ALC892 onboard sound. on a ASUS m5a97 R2 evo motherboard.

Would getting something like a Xonar DG improve the mic volume/quality at all?My friend has one of those 6$ Zalman clip-on mics and they sound better then the mic on the Qpad QH-85 for me..

I'm even thinking of sending the headset back cause the mic is just too bad for me..

 

Hope someone can help me out with this.

 

Thanks :(
