SMP Client (as far as i know  ) utilizes all CPU cores (1,2,4,8...)...as oposed to "ordinary"client which only works on 1 cpu core (and if you run it on i.e. quad core cpu...it will only run on one cpu...so will use only 1/4....or 25% of that quad core cpu's total speed and capability). So with SMP client you dont need to run i.e. 4 clients at once to get that quad core to its max.
For GPU there is totally different client...at the moment that is F@H Windows Client Version 6.11 beta 3 (for ATI cards). And this one folds on GPU, but also needs 1 cpu core for its work (on quad that is 25%).
You were probably confused with all that "graphical client" stuff...i was confused also...cause i didnt know whether that means that it works on gpu or what...but only later found out that those versions are the ones who also display those atoms while folding...nothing more...like a dynamic screensaver...so its not too boring when folding...
