For context, earlier this week, the Hardware Unboxed team was told by an ASUS PR representative that the RTX 5070 Ti had been designated “end of life,” citing this as the reason why they couldn’t provide the team with RTX 5070 Ti samples.

After the YouTube channel shared this revelation with the community in a video, ASUS was quick on its feet to retract the statement of its spokesman, saying the company has no plans to stop selling these models, the cards in question are not being discontinued, and any availability issues are simply due to fluctuations caused by “memory supply constraints.”
