You would be far ahead if you got a soundcard which was capable of 44100
rate from the word go. Time interpolating will always make your good
soundcard sound like a cheap soundcard-- increase noise and all types of
distortion. And if you are going to do it well (ie not introduce too
much distortion) it will be slow with large latency. 

 I have never understood Creative's insistance of designing
fixed frequency sound cards and then at a frequency which is not the
standard CD frequency.
