It was just posted above yesterday, the memory controller is only 32-bit, which means no matter what, you have a hard limit of 4GB.

ah, yep. that's a pretty good reason.

sorry for necro:

Is there any reason against completely replacing the motherboard?
The Rockchip 3588 SoCs are 64-bit and can address up to 32GB of RAM.
As far as I understand, MPC is just a "normal" Linux program running on a soc.
Of course, it would have to be a board to which you can connect the daughterboards and fit to the housing.
I'm just brainstorming and I'm a complete novice when it comes to DIY.

i mean something like this

i saw in the video auf the ram upgrade-guy that there is something like a compute unit (middle of the page on the linked site)
the question is, how custom is the one used by akai.
