The PS4 Pro recently received a new revision with a new model called CUH 7100 (the launch model is CUH 7000).
There are minor differences on both sides of the motherboard based on the pics we have. Notably on the APU side they removed a small group of components, top left of the APU.
What are those they removed ? Are they related to power consumption ? It looks like a part of the group is similar to 6 components located top and down of the APU. there are only 6 on the CUH 7100 in total.
On the back of the board they removed one small EMI shield in order to get the GDDR5 chips in direct contact with the general enclosing metal shield. For better heat dispersion or only cost saving ?
Also the APU has gotten a revision too. CXD90044GD on CUH 7100 instead of CXD90044GB on CUH 7000.
Sadly we don't have any power consumption comparisons yet. But I wouldn't be surprised if the new model consumes a bit less power. Similar to PS4 1000 -> 1100 models. It would be nice to have noise tests too.
