Hello!
What is the best force field to use for a MD of a compley of three proteins and an organic molecule. And what are the best temperature and pressure coupling methods.

"Best" is completely subjective, based on what you read about different force fields and which one you think will be the most accurate for your system. Another consideration is that organic molecule, and how reasonable it will be to develop parameters for it (based on the derivation of the force field you choose). Beware that parameterization is a very advanced topic, and should not be attempted by a newcomer to MD.

As far as temperature and pressure coupling (as well as the force field selection), there is no substitute for reading the primary literature for the common methods - Berendsen, Nose-Hoover, etc. and choosing wisely. Read about the different methods in the Gromacs manual, and you will be able to find the citations for these methods.
