PS4 cuh 12xx ram cooling

Does anyone know what we're the engineers smoking or drinking when (and how) they figured out it would be a great idea to place RAM on the back side of the motherboard and be it passively cooled... Instead of placing it on the same side as the APU, where it can be actively cooled by the radiator+fan?

Just did thermal paste replacement and it's ridiculous that the CPU is at 64°C and the fan is working really fast. Touched the metal top backplate where ram is and it's scolding hot. Fan is blowing room temp. air. When set fan speed setting for 50°C the console runs louder, so I know for a fact, that it's a ram issue. When set to 80°C, console is still at 64°C and not max fan speed. It's silent when cold booting.
