how it's spaced or positioned is really up to you, since we don't know what your personal preference are, etc

but i'd use the 1080p screen as them main screen, and the 900p as a side monitor to make it look better, especially when playing games.

When using two 16:9's, I like to have one horizontal for main-usage and gaming, and then another at the left vertical as an other-usage monitor. (ie: youtube, plugins and such when streaming, etc)

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

It really is up to you, we can't really do much to help unless we have some pictures of your desk and the measurements of it.
