there is a difference between lag and fps drop. 

what is your fps in your game and which game are you playing?

Quote people so they can see your reply.

As for your issue have you plugged in your monitor cable into the GPU or mobo? Make sure its plugged into the GPU.

if you are running high refresh rate but you can't hit the target refresh rate, try to lower your monitors refresh rate. if you want to upgrade, your cpu would be a excellent choice. if you don't have too much money, a r5 3600 should fit well. anything higher and your gpu might bottleneck

that r5 3600 CPU could i get a slightly better gpu to match it because my gtx 1050 ti only gives me 60 fps

A 1650 super could be a good upgrade without spending to much money.  If you paired a r5 3600 with a 1650 super you could probably get around 50% or more performance depending on what game you're playing.

are you mixing and matching? its always best to have the same kit but you would try to dial in similar settings by either overclocking or downclocking one of the kits

i got the r5 3600xt hoping that isn't too much of a jump from the r5 3600 or a need to upgrade my gtx 1050 ti gpu
