What is the full product number of your HP laptop?

It can be found in the HP Support Assistant.

 

What fixes have you tried yet?

OK thanks.

I assume you are playing plugged into the power cord, not just battery correct?

Did you also go into the Nvidia control panel and set the performance mode?

Example...

and also make the GTX 1050 the primary card.

The Preferred graphics processor should not be on Auto Select.

Does that make any difference?
Let me know.

Just make sure its plugged in to the power cord while gaming and that the Nvidia Control Panel has the Preferred Graphics Card set to your GTX 1050, not Auto...

 

Heres the photo, just to make sure you know what I mean...

You didnt mention what game was lagging. If you still have issues, look at your temperatures to see if they are getting too high, causing throtteling.
