Pixel pitch?

I found two monitors from ASUS that are 1 generation apart. The newer model being $35 more on Amazon, both with prime shipping.

 

The newer one however says the pixel pitch is 311.25mm while the last generation says 0.311mm

There's no way the LED's are 311mm apart, right? It's probably a typo and maybe 3.1125mm apart?

 

Any thoughts on which I should buy, or any different recommendations? 

Looking for 1080p, 144hz, 1-3ms with or without freesync.

One is ips while the other is tn. I would make you decision based on which one you prefer. Ips looks much nicer while tn has a faster response time.

I know the newer one is IPS so it will have a better picture but the response times are close enough for me. My question is that is the IPS panel really a 311mm pixel pitch? That seems outrageously high.

Especially when compared to the last generation that says pixel pitch is less than 1 mm but newer one is over 300?

It's obviously a division or unit error. They're both 0.311mm.

  

597.6 / 1920 = 0.311

That's over 1 foot in between pixels. obvious error is obvious.

 I just bought the ASUS VG279Q. I have to still pick it up but I'll be sure to let you know what I think of it I'm super excited since it's IPS once you go IPS you can't go back to TN ?
