NX1 Should Get 16 Universes Like The NX1-16

Software Version:
NX Console Type or PC OS Version:

I was told by a source from Obsidian that the NX1 Console could not get 16 Universes due to RAM limitation and that the new 1-16 got 16 Universes because it has more RAM. That made sense at the time, HOWEVER, looking at the minimum system requirements it states that 8gb if RAM is the minimum for 16 Universes which seems to contradict when I asked why we also couldn’t have the 16 universe license especially for people who purchased a NX1 and then had the rug pulled out from under them when they released a newer model months later.

So which story is it, the NX1 can’t handle 16 Universes or we are stuck with 8 due to RAM limitations? If so, the minimum system requirements for onyx needs to be updated to reflect that 8GB of RAM can only handle 8 universes. Also the min system requirements kind of contradict the hardware that’s inside of a NX1 especially recommending graphics cards and I3-5-7 processors when the NX1 has a Pentium Gold processor…

…please give us a updatekit in any way, like m6 gets. and 16 universes + 5 dylos zones for a fair price! instead, all our nx1 costumer who belive the fairytale of hardware stays and software crows, which the team arround matthias had told us, will jump out of the onyx ship. sorry, but the nx1 gate was a onyx killer in our costumer pool. and they all invest in blue consoles or wings instaed. thx.

Hi @TheatricallyJerry

This isn’t just related to RAM. The NX1-16 motherboard features a more powerful processor, required for running 16 universes including DyLOS.

The NX1’s motherboard and processor cannot reliably handle more than 8 universes including DyLOS.

An upgrade kit would almost be the same cost as an NX1-16, so it does not make sense. This is because the NX1-16 features a new motherboard, and new metalwork to accommodate it.

The specs for 16 Universes says otherwise on the website so it’s conflicting information.
