I have a gaming pc and I would like a suggestion of what to do for my WiFi. I have tried 3 different adapters which none have worked well. 

D-link DWA-192/re

ALFA AWUSO36AC

and a TP-link which can't give me enough Speed to play anything else but minecraft which is still slopy. I also  have a Apple Time Capsule router if that matters, any suggestions or ideas to help would be nice.

The adapters you linked are USB adapters which are shit. Get a real WiFi adapter PCI Express all the way. Get an AC WiFi adapter, and if necessary you might need to get your self a new router, or at least a Wireless AP if your routers range sucks. 

 

You can try Powerline adapters. If you have coax at both locations you can try Moca. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.
