[SOLVED] What hardware should I install into my pc to use bluetooth?

[AntozJr]

I put together my pc a while ago and at the time did not realize that my motherboard did not have on board Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. I've since installed a Wi-Fi card (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071NZ6DL9/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1), once again not realizing it didn't have Bluetooth. Anyways I'm looking to either replace it or just buy a new part that has Bluetooth. The specific headphones that I'd like to use wirelessly are Bose QuietComfort 35 II, which says that they connect via Bluetooth 4.1 or NFC pairing. My question is, is there a specific chip that I have to purchase to get the headphones to connect to my pc? And if so, could you possibly link one?

There are multitudes of PCIe adapters that are both WiFi and BT

I've been using a simple USB Bluetooth dongle for my VR controllers without issue.

Does the actual Bluetooth type matter though? So for example, would I be able to use my 4.1 headphones with a 5.0 adapter?

They are backwards compatible.
