As Origin said, quantum computing is not going to replace traditional computing, since it's not applicable to all classes of problems. It can be used as a co-processor in a normal PC, if the PC needs to perform certain kinds of problems which benefit from the QC.

Is there no way to abstract the general languages we use, such as C, to put all of the code in operations the qauntum computer is highly efficient at? Surely if the computer functions as a Turing machine it can do the exact same classes of computation as for example x86?

Not all conceivable quantum computers are Turing complete, but some are. It all depends on the logic gates which are implemented:
