Buying a midrange GPU just became a total nightmare for PC builders. Channel rumors suggest ASUS totally stopped manufacturing the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB and the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB cards. Factories labeled these specific models as dead products which means no new shipments will arrive. Only residual stock remains within distribution pipelines before they vanish forever.

Prominent tech outlets confirm that obtaining the 5070 Ti 16GB from distributors feels impossible. Australian vendors warn that supply lines ran dry and will likely stay empty for months. Retailers face similar headaches trying to locate the 5060 Ti 16GB variant which implies shelves hold only leftovers.

NVIDIA apparently favors pushing volume on the RTX 5060 8GB and standard 5060 Ti 8GB instead. Production strategy seems to prioritize high-end units like the RTX 5080 16GB or lower-memory midrange cards. This approach leaves 16GB options in the middle segment out in the cold.

Scarcity usually hurts wallets. Merchants predict price tags on the widely available RTX 5060 family might spike nearly 20 percent. Constrained inventory forces buyers to pay premiums even for hardware that barely qualifies as next-gen performance.
