2nd Monitor 2560x1080 Not Working

So I have an LG 25um56 Monitor set up in 2560x1080 and I recently got a 2nd Monitor, a LG 25um57 (Just a refresh basically), and I am trying to run it at 2560x1080 as well and when I try it only registers 1920x1080. I have tried using a custom resolution and it has not worked so far. Any suggestions?

Do you think since my graphics card only has one HDMI port if I used a splitter that would solve it?
