Is it feasible to run both optimized apps for my i7 and ATi 5850 setup?

You can do it if you do not use the "optimized apps"

The ATI app is the exact same app as what is in the optimized app package.

So you are saying to use your CPU app and use default GPU

I wouldn't be so sure about it. On home computer I have MW app_info set for cpu and gpu opti. apps each with its distinct version value (20 cpu, 21 gpu), and on ocasion I did receive WUs for both. I even took some screenshots, which I can post on imageshack or some similar service when I get home, if anyone would like to take a look at them.

I am running MW and d-wave on Bionc. I would like to run MW on my GPU only and d-wave on my cpu only as it is multi-threaded and uses all of my cores. How can I specify this to the cleint? Right now MW is using 1 core of cpu on a WU and my GPU. D-wave WU is halfway done and waiting to run.

I might just want to disable receipt of MW 0.19 WU. How do I do that?
