I could say your mic is the best and second turn off the tv, air conditioner and other stuff that may bother you

well i wouldst say TV but the speakers. and how can i play in the heat?
the previous mic had these options to cancel the speakers sound and the background sound
and what if i wanted to talk in skype i dont have to turn off the AC i just thought u guys might have some solution for this problem like a software or anything , other than that i cant hear my voice in fraps while recording.

Solutions:
1. Get a uni directional mic (I have steel series sibera v2, don't pick up much other than my voice.)
2. Do not record your voice directly with Fraps, use audio editing software. (Audacity is good, free, and can also be used to remove background noise.) audacity.sourceforge.net/

As a general rule when recording, USE HEADPHONES. That way you don't have the issue of your mic picking up the sound. Audacity can be used to at least dull out the Air Con noise, but constant noise from speakers is horribly unacceptable. Every youtuber uses headphones.

Hey is there a program similar to Audacity because my Audacity won't work anymore in my PC, even I try to re-install it or uninstall it then install it. I can't still use Audacity it has kind of problems saying missing .dlls even you download this dlls and put it on your system the problem is still there. So is there any program that is similar to Audacity?

Samson CO1U is only one-dimensional or something? Well, our tv is really loud so it still can be heard. But my voice is nearer and louder. I don't play with my FAN on, it's too hot too.:?

Another thing, not sure if it's going to be helpful but get a popfilter?

I would say get a Pop Filter, and a Wind Shield, because that cancels some noise out. The rest of the noise you can remove in audacity. I dont know why it wouldnt work on your computer. Anyway just google "Audacity Alternatives" and you will find something.

Pop filters usually removes most of the background noises, you can get one for about 20 bucks on amazon.
