Solve : Good specs PC but I can barely run any games?

Answer» HELLO,
This is my fist time posting so sorry if I'm doing it wrong.
About a year ago I bought a HP Omen 15-dc0025nf laptop with these specs:
- Intel CORE i7-8750H
- RAM 12Go
- Storage 1To HDD + 256Go SSD
- GTX 1070 8Go

To me these specs seem really good, I should be able to play most things without much problem. But I can't for some reason. Most 3D games have to be put on the lowest settings with a super LOW resolution to be played normally. Most 2D games are fine, but some still have a hard time. I can play games like League of Legends or Minecraft on decent graphics, but if I try to play anything a little more demanding it just won't let me play unless the graphics are so low that the game looks like 1993 Doom.
Is my PC just not powerful enough? Should it be able to run better with those specs? I'm not really sure what to think.https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri is a good place to start. Checks your current pc specs against minimum specs for the game you wish to play (if it's on their list)

Not 100% perfect but good enough for general use.Oh that's really cool! ty
I tested it and it indeed tells me that I should be able to run 90% of games on recommended settings, but I clearly can't. Could it have something to do with my drivers maybe?The HP has a tool for updating drivers called the HP Driver Deployment Utility Software. You are running the COPY of windows supplied with the HP ?
If not you should be.
 HP Driver Deployment Utility Software is an application or is it just a background tool that automatically updates my drivers? (and yes i have the original version of windows 10 that came with the pc)It is an application you run in the HP tools group. Worth checking the McAfee antivirus is not installed and that your are only running 1 antivirus program.
It's quicker diagnosing problems like this if you run Speccy and copy a link to the report here for review.

I couldn't find the HP Driver Deployment Utility Software nor the HP tools group on my pc, but I found the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics. I did a System Test and CPU Stress test, idk if this helps or not. (Captures attached)
