those would be older clients

you can get FAH gpu Tracker here (guide and link to tracker)
http://www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=219556

and the V7 from stanford
http://folding.stanford.edu/English/HomePage
http://folding.stanford.edu/English/WinGuide

once you recieve enough points you go to the EVGA website under myfolding
there it will track your folding points provided the folding name you use matches your forum name
(in your profile)

and you have to use team number 111065

once a $ tier has been reached a button will appear and you will have to click it (you have to be logged in for this)

download the V7 client or FAH gpu Tracker

either will do both smp and GPU units

50k PPD is 50,000 Points per day (provided you run 24/7)
and have a passkey for SMP and it's primed (over 10 complete with 80% success)

you can get the passkey at Stanford
http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/getpasskey.py

the GTX 580's should produce about 20K PPD each if you run a sli system then 40-60K (24/7)

at 10hrs a day SMP will suffer - since it relies on quick return bonus

if you run the gpus for 1/2 day then 20-30K PPD for them

ok, so download both gpu and cpu then, but my comp is on 10 hours a day, 50k ppd is what? im guessing only have to run this maybe half the month? proteins per day?

about 7 days running 24/7 with all of it
you should be about to at least put out 50K PPD x 7 =350k
