you may have a monitor that takes the five wire signal "RGB", which is composed of VD, HD, R, B, G; in which case you get to buy a total of five expensive video wires, and if you're really lucky, they will have an RCA connector on one end and a BNC connector on the other (and don't forget to look for the little arrows on the jacket), which is how you know you've reached the obsessive-compulsive top of the video snob heap...which is much more "neato" than the piss-ant 3- wire "component" input (Y, PsubB, and PsubR);
but not nearly as cool as the ONE WIRE (D-sub 15p) VGA hook-up (R,G,B, GND, NC, SDA, HD/SYNC, VD, SCL).
The real question for a purist is: "Which is the 'best'?"
and the answer: nobody knows
that's why I have my video monitor hooked up to ALL of the video input options: F-type RF coax, composite on BNC, S video, VD, HD, Pr/Cr/R, Pb/Cb/B, Y/G, and VGA. while you're at it, don't forget to use the low speed serial data connetion.
If you have about 80 wires hanging off the back of the video monitor you're just about there.
