just one day after reports claimed Asus told Hardware Unboxed it planned to discontinue the RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5060 Ti 16GB, the company released a public statement denying those claims.
In a post published on its website, Asus stated that it is not discontinuing either model. “Asus will continue to support the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB and is working closely with partners to stabilize supply as conditions improve,” the company said.
“Asus has no plans to stop selling these models,” it added, emphasizing that neither the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti nor the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB has been discontinued or marked as end-of-life (EOL).
The clarity of the statement raises questions about how the earlier reports emerged. Rather than placing blame on Hardware Unboxed, Asus attributed the confusion to internal communication issues.
“We would like to clarify recent reports regarding the Asus GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB,” the company said. “Certain media may have received incomplete information from an Asus PR representative regarding these products.”
The clarification is welcome news for enthusiasts, especially amid reports that Nvidia has reduced shipments of 16GB versions of the RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5070 Ti. Higher VRAM capacity is valuable for gaming at higher resolutions and for workloads involving AI and content creation.
That said, the statement does not mean memory-related supply issues have been resolved. Instead, it suggests that while the cards may continue to be sold, availability could remain uneven depending on the region.
“Current fluctuations in supply for both products are primarily due to memory supply constraints, which have temporarily affected production output and restocking cycles,” Asus explained. “As a result, availability may appear limited in certain markets, but this should not be interpreted as a production halt or product retirement.”
The controversy began after Hardware Unboxed requested review samples and later posted on Twitter that it had been told there were not enough cards available for testing. That disclosure helped spark the public exchange between the outlet and Asus.
“At this point, the proof will be in the supply, as we can’t tell you which of Asus’ statements is truly accurate,” Hardware Unboxed said. “We believe the RTX 5070 Ti is heavily supply constrained to the point of being effectively killed, but we’ll see whether that’s truly the case across the next few months.”
Separately, Nvidia told Hardwareluxx—via a translated statement—that “demand for GeForce RTX GPUs is strong, and memory supply is constrained.” The company added that it “continues to ship all GeForce SKUs and is working closely with suppliers to maximize memory availability.”
