Thats a pretty good step up over your card, look at this chart: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html

Yes it is a huge improvement. Not to mention that a new 570 is like $200-250.

Thats a really nice improvement, and a great deal, take it. Just make sure it works well, maybe run a benchmark like unigine heaven, and record the temps However as it is your friend I trust its good.

All great advice above...but also make sure you have an adequate power supply. I'm thinking a trustworthy (Antec, Corsair, OCZ etc) of 650 watts or more.
