Whoever posts next will post the 1000th post in this thread!
I have had the best luck running Core 1 @ 80% and Core 2 @ 100% which seems to let my GPU chug along pretty fast. The GPU needs the CPU to poll it pretty often. As I believe it needs to CPU to help with its Scientific core. But yes stanford.edu recommends throttling back the Core 1 for the GPU to use which is why they give you extra points for using yoru GPU to fold.
