    Key word 'Laptop'

    They are not as good, and are generally 2-4 times more expensive than a normal computer of the same specs.

    I use a 1050 Ti in my computer and it works fine for the game. It's likely all the parts in the laptop is either thermal throttling or underclocked.

    My 4 year old not high spec laptop will run 3 cars on a normal map without any problems.

    I am not good with computers so I don't actually have anything helpful to say, just wanted to hop onto the "stop giving laptops an unnecessarily bad name" train.

    Please run HWInfo and run the game for around 10-15 mins. Report back with max and average temps for the cpu and gpu. Assuming those are good, check your power adapter. An unplugged laptop will perform poorly. You can also check your power plan. If your laptop if overheating, try repasting and undervolting.

    since you are using a laptop make sure that beamng is using the correct graphics card!
    the issue might be caused by the game using you cpu's integrated graphics instead of the 1050.

    edit: follow these instructions!

    It's not the GPU that's limiting the number of cars, the GPU does not handle physics.
    What are your temperatures? It could be thermal throttling. Are you talking menu lag it game lag?

    I have the same CPU, although I run it at 3.8 Ghz. Anyway, it should be plenty for two vehicles, generally 4-7 should be fairly easy to achieve.

    Definetly check your temps, since when this CPU gets too hot, it can run as low as 0.9 Ghz.

    A little demonstration running 9 cars plus a camper on my laptop.

    of course not, but he only decribed that he has "insane lag".
    he didnt write that 1 car works fine either.

    GTX 1050 4GO
    I5 7300hq
    8gb ram
    high settings
    can handle 3-4 cars at the same time without major lag
    it's clearly a software problem

    Sounds like overheating / thermal throttling.
    Check your temperatures, your laptop may be running too hot.
