Modes format is as following: <ordinal> <resolution> @ <refresh rate> <prefered mode>. The <ordinal> is used later to refer to the mode in other operations (for example to set the mode to a desired one).

Modes are always shown ordered from the highest resolution and referesh rate, to the lowest. This makes the ordinals stable between runs.
