RTX 5070 Ti Not Dead Yet, Says Asus and MSI Amid Supply Woes

Asus and MSI RTX 5070 Ti graphics cards on display amid supply chain challenges

Asus and MSI are pushing back against viral reports claiming the RTX 5070 Ti is end-of-life, calling the rumors misleading. Both brands insist the GPU remains in production despite supply fluctuations.

Asus clarified in a statement: 'Certain media may have received incomplete information' about the RTX 5070 Ti's status.

The company attributed current supply fluctuations to 'memory supply constraints,' not a production halt. MSI echoed this, stating 'No plans to EoL anything' and emphasizing their 'goal is to feed all gamers with all GPUs.'

Hardware Unboxed initially reported that Asus representatives labeled the 5070 Ti 'end-of-life' due to low supply. Both manufacturers now dispute this, calling EoL 'a big term' with significant market implications.

Industry context points to memory shortages and shifting focus to RTX 5080/5090 production as complicating factors for availability.

Asus and MSI both stress that Nvidia 'killing the RTX 5070 Ti would be killing off a significant model,' though neither brand directly addresses whether the GPU will remain in Nvidia's roadmap beyond 2024.
