I have a Macbook Pro.

Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7

Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB

Is there any way I can utilize both, the CPU & GPU at the same time? If not, what would be the faster chip to use and how can I make sure it is being used?

You can see what applications are available now for Mac OS (only for CPU):
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/apps.php


You can also see what applications will be available 'soon' for Mac OS by checking on SETI@home/AstroPulse Beta:
http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/beta/apps.php

(AstroPulse v7 - opencl_ati_mac , opencl_intel_gpu_mac , opencl_nvidia_mac)

If you want to test them now - Add the 'SETI@home Beta' project
It is not in the list shown in BOINC Manager, to Add it - paste the URL:
http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/beta/

('SETI@home Beta' is separate project - you need to create new account there)
