Dell SE2726H 27in FHD 144Hz at R1,797 suits an esports player who wants a larger side screen for chat, match notes, Discord, brackets, or stream controls while keeping the main play display clear. For a vertical monitor, the key is not only size, but whether the screen gives enough height for reading long lists without making the desk feel cramped.

Best vertical monitor choice for competitive setups

The Dell SE2726H 27in FHD 144Hz at R1,797 is the strongest pick here because 27 inches gives more usable vertical space for scrolling information during practice blocks. The 144Hz spec also makes it feel smoother if it is used for clips, VOD review, or a secondary warm-up screen between matches.

The Dell SE2426H 23.8in FHD at R1,532 is better for a tighter desk where the vertical panel sits beside a main gaming screen. Its 23.8in size keeps the setup cleaner, while FHD is still practical for reading team schedules, browser tabs, and coaching notes.

SA esports desk setup

For a bedroom gaming room or team practice desk, the Dahua LM27 100Hz at R1,500 is a value-focused 27in option if the vertical screen is mainly for information, not the main game view. The MSI PRO MP275W at R1,850 is another sensible 27in class choice when the side display needs to look tidy on a cleaner creator-style desk.
