The simulation cost not only depends on the method but also on the system.
The option of right method depends on your exact aim of the work.

This is true because, gpcr simulation and especially oligomerization is
highly expensive.

Personally I suggest REMD, though I haven't worked on it, I find remd
really helpful.
