Dual screen issues
I have an RX580 setup with a computer monitor (DVI-D) and tv screen(HDMI). I use mostly my computer monitor only while my tv screen is not 'on' or using 'source' and yet my card automatically assumes my tv is the first screen and monitor is my second without any way to change it. This setup is awful because I can't change any settings for either screen while my GPU occasionally works hard, I assume it is because my tv screen (even though it's not being used as my screen) as its set to push 4K and I'm just browsing when this happens.

Try this. I don't have 4k or anything but this works among my 3 monitors. I can set any one of them to be main display.
Right click desktop and choose display settings
At the top select the display you want to be "main display" (note it must be connected and have the large icon so extend or duplicate) and scroll down and you'll see a spot to checkmark "Make this my main display".
Then select your other display and scroll down to Multiple displays, and disconnect this display should be an option in the drop down menu. You can re-enable from the "project settings menu".

Thanks for your input.
My computer monitor still shows up as my secondary display even after checking "make this my main display." I have no option to disconnect either display in the drop-down menu.
Not sure why it's giving me such a hard time to change settings in Windows settings and Radeons.
