    Please click YES if my answer below solves your problem, thank you

    There is no Global tab to make it Primary the Vega 8 will always be primary in a Global sense, instead you must import and select each game individually to run on the RX560x as the Primary

    Make sure you game with your battery charged to 100% BEFORE gaming and KEEP plugged into power while gaming, Windows MUST be set to High Performance plan, then do this:
    Open your AMD control center 
    First click the Updates tab at the bottom left and make sure your graphics drivers are updated to 19.9.2  or higher and click express upgrade



    Make sure High Performance is selected under Power Plan in Nitrosense when on AC



    After that make sure your games are listed under switchable graphics and your games are set on High Performance, you must import your games .exe using the Browse tab in pic below



    Lastly to run your game on the RX560x you MUST launch the game from inside the Radeon Adrenalin Control Center NOT from the game itself or a desktop shortcut. Click the gaming tab then if your game is not there you will need to add your game's .exe by using the ADD button on the right and navigating to your games .exe file, then click the drop down box for your game then click launch. The game will now launch using the RX560x

    Android Emulator should not need the RX560x the Vega 8 should be adequate but if it has a .exe file you can still add it under Switchable Graphics and the Games tab. The Rx560x is really only needed for graphically demanding programs and games. I'm glad your games are now running correctly, good luck
