Has he tried reinstalling drivers AFTER sweeping them?

Hi
When you say "crash", do you mean they (the games) crash straight to desktop (ie the game closes as if alt + f4'd), or do they tend to crash with bug/crash reports?
I suppose the other obvious one, if it hasn't been checked, is temps. Whilst those cards are generally VERY well built, it's entirely possible that just maybe, he's extremely unlucky and as your title suggests, he received a card that wasn't truly stable.
I'll also second kingofsand's suggestion, it may be worth his time using a driver sweeper/cleaner to remove all driver traces and to try current BETA drivers/newest stable release.
