  I ran into the same problem. There are some guides on how to make your own dummy plug, otherwise you can go with a $15 dollar HDMI plug on amazon.

  You can put one old GPU in the rig which has an analog DVI connection and it should work.

  The only way I solved this (I assume you're using TeamViewer) is to use a dummy plug. Strangely enough, my rig became more stable after connecting a dummy plug to it..

  For AMD you can go to radeon setting> pref> additional set> custom resolution> Done.....

  @HolyJoker doesn't work with headless 470 + 16.8.2, there are no resolution options in that additional settings panel.
  
  @adaseb This also makes sense given the low power draw and power connector requirements for Polaris cards.
  Many of us already have +1000w PSUs which are now total overkill even for a 5-6GPU rig, and yet don't have enough SATA/Molex strands to do 1 per GPU as is safest with Polaris. A mixed rig makes more balanced use of available power connectors.
  
  But I don't think a 290 will work, as Hawaii/Fiji cards have this exact same issue (no VGA or analog DVI)

  sometimes I set the windows resolution to portrait instead of landscape with this low res problem and it helps with whatever im doing remotely

  Yeah I forgot 290 won't work. Try 7950/7970/280x/270/etc instead
