I'm not sure which "sample rate" setting you're referring to, but I think this 
might be related to the Simulink "sample rate" setting and not the actual ADC 
sample rate or the fabric clock rate.

Yes and no.  In theory, yes, multiple clocks could be used on a ROACH2 board 
and, in theory, System Generator even has ways of dealing with multiple 
asynchronous clock domains in one FPGA design, but in practice the CASPER 
toolflow is not setup to handle multiple clock domains (at least not for the 
user fabric clock).

How fast are you sampling and how fast do you want to run the DSP part of the 
algorithm?
