Please Help with running games (I have Acer nitro 5)

[b i g s e x y]

My first laptop and I've been having an issue where my computer cannot run games like Siege, or Fortnite (It does but with awful fps and frame drops even on low settings) But it can run games like tf2 without most problems but those are older games, I don't have much experience with computers so I don't many ideas and I'm lost and I would love some help (Also I have 8gb of ram and siege suggests 6)

Which one do you have and what is in it?

First off, install ALL drivers from the laptop model's support page. For GPU drivers, first use DDU in safe mode to uninstall old drivers, then clean reinstall them directly from Nvidia. Don't download Ge Force Experience, only drivers and PhysX. Plug in the laptop while gaming, this is required. Make sure the Nvidia GPU is used in game by going to the in-game video settings tab, it will start with "GTX", if it shows "Intel" switch it to the GTX GPU in the dropdown menu.

Do the same, except switch to the AMD GPU.
