  1. Turn off main monitors while screencasting


    Hi folks, hope someone will know how to do this:

    I have a pc with dual monitors, and I also connect to my projector as a 'wireless display' to watch movies.

    Is there some way I can turn off the computers main monitors while doing so? I tried some free software which I downloaded for this, but it turned ALL the displays off, including the wireless one.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    cheers,
    Richard

    ps I am running Windows 10 version 1903 (OS build 18362.1139)

    :)

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Power limit
    Temp limit

    Are the 2 monitors within arm's reach? Simply turning off their power shouldn't affect projecting/casting with desktops. Most touchscreen monitors require a USB connection to get the signal into the OS so the power to the monitor/s would have to remain on.

    Notebooks are different, can toggle between the LCD panel, the projector or both at the same time.
