Hello everyone. Im wondering, do motherboards like this one have special name, because CPU is located between RAM?

Also, are there any motherboards that have X470 or B450 chipset that have RAM arranged like this, im looking for this only because of aesthetics.

Looking exactly for 4 slots for RAM, 2 on the sides of CPU - X470, B450.

Solution
You will typically find that on quad-channel motherboards. Since X470 and B450 are only dual-channel chipsets, you probably won't find that.
