Welcome to the forum, imbigbuck.

That depends on your other uses for the computer, like gaming or other CPU/GPU intensive tasks, if any. Do you leave it running 24/7? If so, and you don't mind running beta SW, at this point I'd tentatively recommend the v7 unified client, set up for SMP folding only. That would be an easy and very unintrusive way to get the ball rolling. It would also leave you the option to configure GPU folding later on (v7 / FahCore16 required for HD6850), once/if you are comfortable with that.
