Other articles weren't helping since I have no real knowledge of computers. So please... ELI5!

I used to have twice the FPS in games like LoL, BL2, and Rainbow 6. My old graphics card broke so I bought an upgrade. Though when it was installed, the performance was significantly worse.

Old Graphics Card: GeForce GTX 750 Ti
New Graphics Card: GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4460 CPU @ 3.20Ghz 3.20 GHz

I use 64 bit windows 10. Please ask for any more information if needed!
 
Solution
Does the 1050 Ti require a 6 pin connector and if so, did you plug it in? Make sure the monitor is connected to the 1050 Ti output and not the motherboard output. The 1050 Ti should be giving you much higher framerate than the 750 Ti.
