Folding PPD: CPU vs GPU

[verbal]

I'm sure this must have been discussed but I can't find a definitive answer.

As things stand at the moment do you get more points from the best GPU WU's or more points from 2 of the best CPU WU's.

In other words would a highly clocked core 2 duo get more PPD (running 2 instances) than a highly clocked X1900?

I've got no idea how close it is between the two. I've not been around on the forum much lately.

I know it's not normally a choice as people are running one c2d core and the gpu client. This tells me that the gpu client gives more PPD than a single c2d core... i guess.

It looks to me then that a generalised answer to my question would be. That a c2d running two instances is comparable to a X1900. It wouldn't suprise me if Stanford had simply engineered the points that way so that neither the people who want to try the beta nor the people who don't lose out points wise.
