2nd 1050ti wont do anything for you except give you more display possibilities

Does it also increase the fps or no? I haven't really researched that before

get a GTX 1070. you can't SLI a GTX 1050ti without downsides. But a 1050ti should be good enough unless you are playing games at Ultra and editing 4k video

Setup:

Name: Ryzentosh

 AMD Ryzen 5 1600

Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 570 8GB

MSI B350 PC Mate

Corsair Spec-01

Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 2400mhz

Kingston A400 120GB

Seagate Barracuda 2TB

Thermaltake Smart RGB Series 600W

Be Quite! Pure Wings 2

The only graphics card you can SLI with the 10 series is the 1070, 1070ti, 1080, and 1080ti

Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 570 8GB

If it does not support SLI yes but I think a 1070 or 1080 is enough and SLI will not give much of a gain in games
