Do you know if there is any way I can contact the Wayland devs maybe, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot support for it, yet it ships as the default option in Fedora.

You are right if I replace VGA with amd in my grep, I can see my card:
$ lspci | grep -i amd
01:00.0 Display controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Sun XT [Radeon HD 8670A/8670M/8690M / R5 M330 / M430 / Radeon 520 Mobile] (rev 83)
But my question is that VGA means that it is using the Intel Graphics for all display operations right ? If so is there any way to transfer all that to the AMD card ?
Forget about Wayland, is there any way to do that in Xorg ?
It would seem (from what i can find quickly) that wayland will indeed use the primary one by default. This can be fixed if you can just disable the intel one in the bios?
If you want continue with Xorg, start by making sure that you have the package installed xorg-x11-drv-amdgpu . And then have a look through the wiki link for any other information.
If you cannot disable the intel and want to continue with Xorg, you will need to add /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ files to configure X to select the right GPU.
Let us know what you want to do. (It would seem disable in the bios would be the fasted option all round)
