The connection should be one with HDMI and one with display port I guess, but I'll search to make sure.

I'm more or less sure of it now. Here is a video that may help (yes I know it's for three monitors, it's still helpful though)

You can just use the DisplayPort-to-Mini DisplayPort cables that come with the monitors.
