Welcome to the forum, Rockstar24.

I'd recommend the v7 client with one SMP slot and one GPU slot. If you're not familiar with v7, it's the upcoming all-in-one client that can run all of your hardware from one program. Slots in v7 are akin to separate v6 clients.

v7 is in beta, but it's a very stable beta; most of the bugs are cosmetic. The installer should automatically set up an SMP and GPU slot for you. You may have to restrict the SMP slot to 3 cores since AMD cards need a lot of CPU time.
