Anyone willing to share a working config file for a dual GPU setup?

So, I now have a dual gpu setup (NON SLI: Gigabyte GV-N970XTREME-4GD & an Asus TURBO-GTX970-OC-4GD5), Gigabyte is primary there. Setting the utilization factor to 0.5 works just fine, 2 WUs on each of the GPU's, but when I moved the factor down to 0.33 it did not work on 6 WU's in total but rather 3 on the primary card and 2 on the secondary (same thing happen when moving to 0.25, 4 on primary and 1 on secondary). I'm assuming this is because they fill up a single CPU core (5*0.2) and they wont go above that. If anyone has a working config file to share that would be really great (I'm just too f***ing retarded and lazy to look around any further at 1 AM). I really want to dial in on the best number of concurrent WUs and it would be great if I could assign any one of those cards a larger or smaller number of WUs (since one is better than the other).

Thanx in advance.

Posting because it's useful

Posting because it's useful to have this show up in a couple extra places. To have all projects use all GPUs in your box, use Notepad to create cc_config.xml in your main BOINC folder (C:\ProgramData\BOINC on a typical Windows setup), and it contains:
