Interesting stuff...

From the article I get the impression the GPU2 client will not work on the X16xx-X19xx GPUs. Is that correct?

Correct. GPU2 will not run on 1xxx cards.

News: http://folding.typepad.com/news/2008/04 ... -beta.html
If you have a 2xxx or 3xxx card, please feel free to check out the new GPU client? You can download it from here...
FAQ: http://folding.stanford.edu/English/FAQ-ATI2#ntoc9
What hardware does the new client/core support?

The client runs on all hardware supported by the AMD Compute Abstraction Layer (CAL), i.e. R6xx hardware, Radeon 2400 and above. The 3870 X2 has not been tested with both cores active, but running on 1 core does currently work.

Does the new GPU client run the same WUs?

No, this new second generation GPU client will run a different set of WUs specially constructed for the Fahcore_11.exe functionality. Fahcore_11 will not run with the first generation GPU client, and Fahcore_10 will not run with this new client.
