Should Be Getting Higher FPS?

So I just got home from college today and decided to install a new graphics card to my old hp computer. I was hoping for fps boost and able to play games more smoothly. Come to my surprise there was very little fps difference BUT no matter what setting I put the game on it didnt change the fps dramatically like it did before (like 1-3 fps drop if there was any now). I am not sure why I am not getting higher fps and even I ran a benchmark and did good. My min fps was so slow right on first frame and then it went up thats why the min fps is so low. My specs are...

and the benchmark

"AMD A6 3620 APU"

Sounds like symptoms of CPU bottlenecking. Just to be sure, install MSI Afterburner and set up the On Screen Display to show the FPS, GPU usage, and CPU usage, and each core's usage. If GPU usage below 98% and at least one of the CPU's cores' are near 100% you are being CPU bottlenecked. If the game you're playing on has adjustable view distance or possibly shadow quality settings, try turning them down. This will relieve the CPU's workload slightly.

Other than that, and you find your CPU is the bottleneck whilst your PC isn't performance a framerate up to your desire (should be below monitor's refresh rate) all you can do is upgrade the CPU or live with it.

Comparing to other Unigine valley results of the 1050ti, which use a higher resolution and AA, they score higher than yours did. This is leaning even more to the CPU culprit.

Doesn't look right at all. Firstly, OP's average FPS is 2 lower than the video's benchmark.That isn't too bad however the min is vastly lower and max is almost 10 FPS lower. The resolution in the video is higher, in fact 44% more pixels than the one OP's test. Also AA was 8 x in the video as apposed to OP's 2x, which greatly affects the GPU workload. Lastly, the video is using "Extreme" quality while OP's is using just High.

Also, the GTX 1050ti is definitely not a piece of garbage.

I was assuming this was the problem but I am having difficulty with afterburner. There is no box for on screen display...
