RGB, implies this is not NTSC...
Depending on the resolution, bandwidth can be significant. 300MHz for
modern large monitors. Most cable maufacturers will offer 'triple co-ax',
or 'triple + sync', and for a PC monitor, it'll be the latter that is
needed.
How careful you need to be, will depend massively on the monitors
resolution, and sync rate.
