My voice sounds good. It when there is no sound at all, im not clicking anuything or speaking and there is this like backround noise and its not static. It's just noise.

If you lowered your gain and is still doing it, you may have one defective unit?
I bet this is not OBS related, must be some audio setting

You have it in cardioid mode? Helps when using it for voice only

You could also try the noise gate feature from OBS if you don't find a solution, at least while you don't speak it will be muted
