In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Zotac AMP! are massively better than the Nvidia GeForce GT 2030.

The GTX 1070 has a 355 MHz higher core clock speed and 88 more Texture Mapping Units than the GeForce GT 2030. This results in the GTX 1070 providing 152.7 GTexel/s better texturing performance. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.

The GTX 1070 has a 355 MHz higher core clock speed and 48 more Render Output Units than the GeForce GT 2030. This results in the GTX 1070 providing 82.8 GPixel/s better pixeling performance. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.

The GTX 1070 was released over three years more recently than the GeForce GT 2030, and so the GTX 1070 is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the GeForce GT 2030 when running the latest games.

The GTX 1070 has 6144 MB more video memory than the GeForce GT 2030, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. This is supported by the fact that the GTX 1070 also has superior memory performance overall.

The GTX 1070 has 224.3 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the GeForce GT 2030, which means that the memory performance of the GTX 1070 is massively better than the GeForce GT 2030.

The GeForce GT 2030 has 384 Shader Processing Units and the GeForce GTX 1070 Zotac AMP! has 1920. However, the actual shader performance of the GeForce GT 2030 is 578 and the actual shader performance of the GTX 1070 is 4658. The GTX 1070 having 4080 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the GTX 1070 delivers a massively smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the GeForce GT 2030.

The GeForce GT 2030 transistor size technology is 4 nm (nanometers) smaller than the GTX 1070. This means that the GeForce GT 2030 is expected to run very slightly cooler and achieve higher clock frequencies than the GTX 1070.

The GeForce GT 2030 requires 30 Watts to run and the GeForce GTX 1070 Zotac AMP! requires 220 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 300 Watts for the GeForce GT 2030 and a PSU with at least 500 Watts for the GTX 1070. The GTX 1070 requires 190 Watts more than the GeForce GT 2030 to run. The difference is significant enough that the GTX 1070 may have an adverse affect on your yearly electricity bills in comparison to the GeForce GT 2030.
