Yeah, in terms of new designs, Itanium got its last new processor in 2017, although wikipedia says it's basically the same as the 2012 design, and that was for an architecture with a poor release in 2001 and effectively dead by 2005. Manufacturing continued until 2020.
x86 will probably get at least a similar lifetime beyond the point where it's clearly dead. And then those systems will likely last another ten years. Maybe there will be retro builds for even longer (Intel Quark was more or less an OG pentium, 20 years later)
