[Solved] Screen Stretching

I have recently installed Arch on a system where I use 2 monitors. One being 1920x1080 (21.5") and the second being 1600x900 (19"). I have these monitors set side by side and have so for almost a year now. Both windows and ubuntu didn't have a stretching effect on the display. Since arch, mainly on my 1920x1080 screen, the whole display looks stretched.

GPU: 750ti
Drivers: 370.28

Other notes: When taking a screenshot on the second screen, if I drag it over towards the first monitor it is clear that it stretches. Both screens have the same ratio so thats not an issue (16:9)
When oppening NVIDIA X Server Settings, under X Server Information, I see this:

Screens:                      1

Request for any other information required to solve this issue. Thank you in advance.

EDIT: Solving this was odd. I changed the monitor resolution down to match the lower one, then back up. It seems to be fine now.

60% of the time, I don't know what I'm doing all the time.

P.S. I'm new so everything I say is probably wrong.

No, you are not allowed to bump: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … ct#Bumping

Read the full Code: you have been told a couple of times already, consider this the last.
