Here is my system
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8 gb of ram is like the minimum to run games decent but 16 woul be better of coarse to try to run games more smoothly and at higher graphics settings.
Also a 1050 TI is also just ok, not great.
Your CPU is good.
SSD's help as well but more with starting the game up quickly.
But with your system I would run games at medium at best. Games at medium still look good and better or equal to most PS4 and Xbox One X games.
Look at this article.

Compares Anthem for PC and Xbox One X.
"Digital Foundry took the time to compare how Anthem runs on Xbox One X with its PC counterpart. Its performance analysis establishes where the Xbox One X falls in the tier of PC settings, showing that the console runs around the PC’s “Medium” settings across the board."

Hmm. 8GB should be more than enough. Your processor isn't bad either. Are you having issues low performance in other games? If so I'd check to see if your primary display adaptor is set to the 1050 as opposed to the Intel Graphics just in case.
Dragon's Dogma if I end up leaving it on my lap for a prolonged period of time and it heats up (I play on a laptop).
Those are the more significant ones that I have trouble with.
Shadow of Mordor in particular came out of nowhere and lag never changes no matter what settings i put it on. I think it may come down to hardware failure what with it every game reacting the same. (but there are certain games that do not lag at all).
- I forgot to mention that you should always make sure you have your graphics drivers updated. As well as any other drivers and updates for your system.
- Dont run anything in the background while gaming. This includes internet browsers
- You are playing on a laptop so a laptop cooler is pretty much necessary, because when laptops get too hot the cpu and gpu throttle down in speed. Making games run slower than normal.

Even on reasonable settings, you should be able to get higher framerates than 30 on a bunch of those games. Sure, a 1050ti won't run everything at max either, but those games should at least be playable.
While I don't think 16GB of RAM is necessary for all of those games, it couldn't hurt to upgrade (like Inhuman said), but honestly, it sounds like something else is going on.
Honestly, I'd have a tech look at it for you, if I were you.

A cooler is a good idea, definitely. And that other stuff obviously.
Guy that made Pixel Dungeon did this for a competition. Nice little game that browser loads fine on my Samsung phone.
Was looking into a PlayStation TV, and the damned things are over 100 dollars. Ridiculous.
Vita's are even worse. I miss the days when old technology was 5 dollars, like that junk that it is. Old Atari and Nintendo carts were 10 cents.
Now nothing gaming related is cheaper then 50 dollars, used, and often more. And it never goes down to pre-boom prices. Just like comic books, trading cards,
Lego's, it's ridiculous.

I feel that I'm really lucky I bought a PS TV when they were still sellin em, as short as that single year was, I got mine for $30 brand new.
