I was told that it doesn't matter what quality soundcard I have in my pc for recording if I am only using headphones for mixing, since I am saving up for monitors. any truth to that?

No, that's utterly false. The quality of the A/D converters in your soundcard is paramount.
If you are saving for monitors, just concentrate on tracking for now. You can revisit your mixes later. But if your A/D conversion is terrible, then you won't have much to work with later. So save for a better soundcard first.
