Yeah I was thinking that.. also, would it be an issue that the 4070 Ti didn’t come from amazons inventory? As it was purchased from ASUS?

Theoretically yes, but practically I think it doesn't matter, they probably wont go this far to review your claim.

It mostly comes down to the strength of the account, you seem to have a strong one, I'd say don't be shy & keep your 4070 out of it.
