> How do the two video cards compare (Radeon R7-200 vs. GTX 1030)?

Depends a lot on what R7 200-series card it is. It’s twice as good as an R7 240, but maybe as good or a little behind an R7 260X. The 1030 is still driver supported and I don’t see Nvidia dropping 1000-series support any time soon. They’re still supporting the 900-series cards.
