But you need stability. And you won't get stability with that setup. Please 
ask the archives why linking two soundcards without syncing them with 
sample-accuracy is _never_ working. (You can search for my name, I have 
written about this several times.)

But you could 'sync' two pc's via midi-mtc or mmc. That could be sufficient 
for performance.
