There is a quieter PS4pro and a louder one, but I'm not sure how the quieter one compares to the launch ps4. However the first ps4pro model is louder than launch ps4 (I mean my cat looks genuinely worried everytime I boot it while it has no problem with the washing machine, just saying)

I've been looking but couldn't find any article about my Asian PS4 Pro model CUH-7106B, is this new or old?

The launch model is 70xx, 71xx are newer SKUs.

The model number is the same as the Battlefront 2 ps4pro SKU, which was launched a year after the PS4pro. It is said the first model's APU tend to heat the RAM, resulting in a overall "warmer" experience (lawl), which could be the reason its fans are louder.

A few sources talk about two different fan manufacturers on the launch model, which could explain why there are so many discrepancies in user experiences.
