Hello guys, maybe you have any idea what i have to do.
Basically in my current situation i have to put primary card in 2nd pci-e slot,(2080ti) and secondary card is in primary slot. (RX580, used for hackintosh)
Any idea how i can make card from second slot as my primary, i cant find such option in MSI bios (X570 Meg Ace)
 
Usually you set it in Nvidia control panel or in a game option. But because you have a AMD card as the second card I'm not sure how you would do it
 
You'll need 2 monitors to set it up but in windows you can set what your primary display is, just connect your primary monitor to the card you want as primary and then mess about with display settings to make it that way - games and applications will default to opening on the primary monitor which will mean they are rendered by the primary card

If you are running 2 OS's and want a different card to be primary in each OS then you will have to physically swap monitor cables

Otherwise it should be an option in bios so you will have to keep searching
