If you like your audio interface and have a midi foot controller you are happy with, it wouldn't hurt to check out Green Machine, my favorite VST guitar amp simulator. I prefer the sound to Guitar Rig, but sound is very subjective and I'm not particularly interested in emulating any particular amp. I think the demo works without any restrictions for 30 days. http://www.greenmachine.pwuq.net/ I'm currently using a Line6 TonePort. Since it's doing the amp simulation outboard of the computer, it's a bit more CPU friendly. I don't have any experience with the Guitar Rig foot controller, just the demo software.
