Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU

I've made a quick and dirty webpage which will tell you if you have the new MCU:

You're mean..... :)

Geez guys & gals I don't know what the deal is with all this "confirmation" I've told you directly from the source no need to speculate just need to see if your car incoming has it or not. Also this update is for both the S and X confirmed by me and I will put money against anyone who doubts my info ;)...or drinks!

Any chance if you could ask your source if AP 2.5 cars are eligible for a retrofit?
 
I just took delivery of my 2018 MS 75D which completed production on 2/21/18. I have the new lighted vanity mirrors. I certainly haven't noticed any lag in my 17" screen. If there's a simple way to check the MCU in software settings, I'm happy to investigate. Not sure I'm committed enough to start disassembling trim pieces, though! ;)

You're joking about the lighted vanity mirrors, right?
 
My SC has ordered a new MCU for my yellow ringed MX screen. Needless to say, I’ll be working with them to see if the new part can be dropped in before they install. Two weeks ago they told me the part was on back order. Could mean they ran out of Tegra ones and are waiting for refurbs or they are waiting on new x86 ones.

Thanks. I have the discoloration issue too so would be curious what MCU replacement you get.

Can you report back the outcome when this is resolved?

Would the below work? It tries loading WebGL and printing out the GPU information.
Code:
<html>

<body>
  <canvas id="glcanvas" width="0" height="0"></canvas>
  <script>
    var performance = window.performance || window.mozPerformance || window.msPerformance || window.webkitPerformance || {};

    document.write("<br>");
    for (var value in performance) {
      document.write(value + "<br>");
    }

    document.write("<br><br><br>");

    var canvas;
    canvas = document.getElementById("glcanvas");
    var gl = canvas.getContext("experimental-webgl");

    document.write(gl.getParameter(gl.RENDERER) + "<br>");
    document.write(gl.getParameter(gl.VENDOR) + "<br>");
    document.write(getUnmaskedInfo(gl).vendor + "<br>");
    document.write(getUnmaskedInfo(gl).renderer + "<br>");


    function getUnmaskedInfo(gl) {
      var unMaskedInfo = {
        renderer: '',
        vendor: ''
      };

      var dbgRenderInfo = gl.getExtension("WEBGL_debug_renderer_info");
      if (dbgRenderInfo != null) {
        unMaskedInfo.renderer = gl.getParameter(dbgRenderInfo.UNMASKED_RENDERER_WEBGL);
        unMaskedInfo.vendor = gl.getParameter(dbgRenderInfo.UNMASKED_VENDOR_WEBGL);
      }

      return unMaskedInfo;
    }
  </script>
</body>

Would be great to see some longer, detailed videos showing Map performance with scrolling, traffic on/off, satellite images, etc...
@Trebek1762 ?

It would be great to see some data on the performance difference. Like from either of these two sites or any other:

bit.ly/2pi7JML
SunSpider 0.9.1 JavaScript Benchmark (sunspider-0.9.1 test suite - In Progress...)


bit.ly/2b1nT6J
Free online browser speed test - SPEED BATTLE


Here is what would not be great: fifteen more pages of "I hope I got the new MCU", "I hope it can be upgraded" or "I just bought my car I didn't get the new MCU I hate Tesla". If someone starts a poll: "How fast does the new MCU speed feel to you" I will die a little.
