Cmon man. You call it a complete lie and then proceed to lie through your teeth?
It affected EVGA GPUs during the beta, EVGA accepted the responsibility and offered to replace the cards. However after the beta the game also bricked Gigabyte and laptop (which I think came straight from Nvidia) GPUs, so the issue wasn't exclusive to EVGA.
As for EVGA no longer making cards. Their cards were highly regarded because they made quality cards. The reason they stopped making cards wasn't because they did a shitty job, the reason was Nvidia. The official reasoning EVGA gave was that Nvidia made it difficult to maintain consistent profit margins, but the rumors are that EVGA saw the 40 Series specs along with the demands Nvidia had for the manufacturers and didn't want anything to do with that shit. And rightfully so how poorly the 40 series was received.
