970 question

So I know there was a whole fiasco with the 970s a while back and how the memory was dodgy or something. Just wondered if that has all now been resolved?

A colleague at work has asked for advice on what GPU to get his son for xmas at a budget of around £200-300 and I was going to recommend the 970 as he wants to stick with Nvidia due to bad AMD experiences.
 
He's on a fairly old rig so doubt he's running anything more than 1080. Would you rate the 390 over the 970 then? Says the bad experience was an issue with a Radeon card he used to have going pop and taking his mobo with it. Might suggest both options and let him choose.
