Where is the RAM stored on a RISC-V CPU? [closed]

Does RISC-V have any opinion on whether the RAM is stored on the same chip as the CPU (like on ARM devices) or on a separate chip somewhere on the motherboard (like on an x86 desktop)? … I assume that the CPU will have some levels of cache directly on it, but I'm curious where the main memory is. If not the architecture, what do existing RISC-V CPUs do? …
