I had a really good one that died, and since then I've bought three different mics and they're all just stufftastically quiet, with every volume and decimal boost turned up.
Headset mics aren't an option because my room gets very hot and I have a fan running a lot and headset mic just picks it up too much.

Shure SM57/58. The 57 is an industry standard in studio recording and the 58 is very very popular with live settings, but makes a cool vocal studio mic. I've got both, and I personally prefer the 58 for vox, but the 57 is a good rounded mic for vox and instrument mic'ing. They're both $100.

3570K is the only i5 card you should get. It's the newest and best card in the series.

Those are a bit too much and look rather big. I've had <=$20 mics that worked perfectly for my uses
