Ok, so I picked up a Peavey Vypyr Tube 60w a few weeks back, but i've been having issues with direct USB connection from the amp to my computer. I currently don't have a real interface, so i've been connecting directly into my USB on my computer and using the internal soundcard.
problem - i'm experiencing way too much latency, so I can't monitor on demand.
fix - i've been told that if I get a real interface, that my latency issues should be solved since i'm not trying to monitor with my internal on-board soundcard.
another issue - i'm low on funds. Which one of these would you recommend for me to get as a first-timer real interface user?

I know most of you may pick the most expensive one... but i'd prefer to stick with the cheaper ones first if they will do what I want to do with it. I'm not looking to track multiple items at a time through the interface. I'm using Reaper by the way. I just want to be able to have backing tracks playing, and then be able to record over the backing tracks without having any sort of delay when i'm playing.
Thank you all, in advance, for any suggestions and feedback you can provide.
EDIT: I'm not sure if this will influence your opinion, but I'm using a PC, running Windows XP, with an intel core 2 Duo processor, and 2 gigs of ram. I've been wanting to get a MAC, but again... no $. LOL
