A mini PC refresh suits a micro-business keeping existing screens after Windows 10 support ended on 14 Oct 2025. Minisforum NAB6 Lite at R4,150, UM750L and AI-X1-255 around R4,600, and Ninkear M8 at R8,350 give options without replacing monitors.
Dell SE2426H 23.8in FHD at R1,532 suits a micro-business moving old Windows 10 desktops to mini PCs where each staff member needs a clean, affordable monitor without replacing the whole desk setup. Its 23.8in FHD size keeps reception, accounts, and admin stations familiar, while the low price helps a small team refresh several work areas at once.
The Dell SE2726H 27in FHD 144Hz at R1,797 is the stronger choice for a desk where one person handles invoices, browser tabs, spreadsheets, and email all day. The 27in FHD panel gives more working space than a smaller screen, and the 144Hz refresh rate makes everyday cursor movement and scrolling feel smoother.
For a tighter counter or shared admin point, the Dahua LM27 100Hz at R1,500 gives a 27in screen size at a very sharp price. The 100Hz spec is useful when a mini PC is replacing an ageing tower but the business still wants a screen that feels modern for web apps, point-of-sale dashboards, and quick customer lookups.
A mini PC refresh is often about clearing desk space, reducing cable clutter, and keeping the workflow stable. The MSI PRO MP275W at R1,850 fits this kind of front-desk or back-office setup because it keeps the 27in class practical while avoiding the cost jump of replacing every peripheral at once.
Ready to choose the right monitor? Use Dell SE2726H 27in FHD 144Hz at R1,797 as the small-business counter benchmark, then check whether its listed spec matches the space, workload, and upgrade path.
Yes, it fits if the business wants a Windows 10 EOL refresh while keeping usable screens and paying only for the replacement computer.
Focus on whether the mini PC can run the daily admin, browser, email and office work that the current Windows 10 machine handles.
Check that the existing monitor, keyboard, mouse and network setup can connect cleanly to the chosen mini PC.
For light office work, the R4,150 NAB6 Lite keeps the refresh lean, while pricier options make sense for heavier daily workloads.
The main decision is replacing the unsupported Windows 10 box without creating extra screen costs or workplace disruption.
Pick the machine around the actual work queue, with UM750L and AI-X1-255 near R4,600 and Ninkear M8 at R8,350 for heavier use.
