Create a startup script though group policy. The script should check for the old client install, then install/upgrade to the new version. Link the script to the OU's with computers that need the upgrade. Then create a collection based on the new client to watch which machines get it. I would also create a collection that has machines with the old client install. My suggestion is to test the changeover with a testing OU with at least 10 machines. Try to replicate those machines as closely as you can to production.
