Well, if it is a 75% performance increase over the 6970, then it should be about 50% over the GTX 580. I don't expect a christmas miracle, but I also don't expect just a modest increase in performance over its predecessor given that bandwidth has increased 50% along with a 30% dieshrink while having a max TDP of around 250-300w...
