I'm not sure what you're asking, but you can use basically any Xbox360 controller on PC.
You'll only need a wireless signal receiver if you don't have a wired controller.

Something like this:

(quick google search)
You can probably find one in most online stores that sell related stuff.

Thanks for quick response :) 

I am thinking to get one Microsoft Xbox Controller, so I can play games. And I am not sure whether latest games are compatible with this controller or not.

Thanks again :)

No problem.
It's probably better to just get a wired one so you won't need the receiver, unless you have money to burn or really need wireless.

Also, remember to get the drivers. :)

I just checked it and it will work just fine.
Try without drivers first (They're usually just plug-and-play) if it doesn't work then download the win7 drivers.

The official wireless receiver and all wired controllers I have tried on Win 8.1 worked without issue, I have not tested the third party receivers, but I imagine they work fine too. The old style wireless headset works fine too, which surprised me, but has no noise cancellation (something I guess is handeled by the 360 itself, because I don't have background noise issues on the console while it is terrible on the PC.) Most multiplatform titles are designed to use the 360/One layout when a controller is connected, +100 to MS/developers for making it so easy. I remember the trouble getting my Gravis Gamepad to work on Commander Keen and others back in the day.

Hi, very irrelevant question but I have to ask :)  I setup my new PC Intel i5 4670K without any windows installed. I checked the temperature of my system. It shows between 44-47. I don't know why its too high when I am not using any thing except turn it on and go to Bios. Any help please?

What kind of cooler are you using, how many case fans, have proper airflow? My i3 3xxx on the stock Intel cooler runs in that range idle, in a small form factor case. My i5 3570k build has a Cooler Master 212 Evo and runs about 40 idle and up to 60 under load.
