Blast and GPUs

Is there any benefit to using Blast over PCoIP protocol if the host servers do not have GPUs installed?

I may be looking at older references, but there doesn't appear to be a compelling reason to use Blast over PCoIP is GPUs are not installed.

BLAST has evolved over the years and is better than PCoIP nowadays. We can do a lot of tuning for BLASt, more details here: https://techzone.vmware.com/resource/vmware-blast-extreme-optimization-guide#

Announcing end of support for PCoIP in VMware Horizon - VMware End-User Computing Blog might be the best reason at all 😉
