I'm stupid and bought the link cable not realizing that I don't have a USB-C port on my computer. so what do i do now? Do I need an adapter, if so which one? Do I need an expansion card?

You can get USB 3.0 A Male to USB C 3.1 Female Adapters from places like Amazon.  These work ok;

I ended up buying a pcie usb3.1 gen2 card with a type-c port and it works well with my official link cable.  Plus it does not require any adapters.  This is the one I bought from Amazon;
