I've had performance issues with games like terraria and space engineers but not portal 2 or other games.
I've also tried forcing the games to use the nvidia card but they still had the same issues.
I've also re-installed all my graphics drivers and disabled the integrated graphics from the device manager but strange things happened when I did the computer was sluggish when I right clicked
it took over a minute to bring up the drop down menu and the nvidia control panel wasn't available nor was nvidia geforce experience there.
also my max resolution dropped from 1920X1080 to 1280X1024 and I tried to run my games but I got this error from terraria.

I have also tried disabling the integrated graphics from the bios but the option was not available.

If you have a laptop with dual GPUs, you need to install the drivers provided by the Dell website for your laptop model. The switcharoo logic that switches between GPUs is proprietary and mainstream graphics drivers (from nvidia.com) won't work.

alright so it says I need 4 files to download, working on that right now. after doing this should I uninstall my nvidia drivers or will they not interfere with the drivers from dell?
You need to completely uninstall any current video drivers you have and use the drivers provided by Dell.
