Stream voice vs. mumble voice

So in order for my mic to pick up my voice, I need to turn it all the way up AND boost it as well. When I talk through mumble, it sounds pretty good. My voice is clear, and there is no background noise. However, when I try streaming with OBS, the background noise that comes with the mic boost is incredibly loud. Why is there such a difference? Is there any way to eliminate this background noise within OBS, maybe through the use of an external program or plugin or something?

Mumble applies noise suppression before transmission, which I don't believe OBS does. You can check if your motherboard sound manager has noise reduction which might help (appropriately reducing the suppression in Mumble so as not to overdo it). Also make sure you are using your rear panel for plugging in the microphone.
