Those aren't RCA connectors, they're likely BNC connectors.

Using the BNC inputs is kind of a manual configuration that can have better results in certain situations.

I don't know the difference between RCA and BNC. I just thought that RCA plug was a generic term for those kinds of plugs. They look the same as what you would see in component cables or regular Audio/composite cables (I think.. I can't remember exactly what they looked like. I'll check when I get home, it's bothering me now trying to remember.)

The BNC connectors are for use with high resolutions.  At extremely high resolutions a regular VGA cable can have a lot of noise over it. 

For use as an arcade monitor there is no difference in image quality, although the monitors themselves may have slightly different abilities or settings for each input.

BNC's are popular on higher end equipment because of the positive connection you get when you push and lock them on, the connection is good, the impedance is matched.  everything is good... they are designed to perform.

RCA's are cheap, dirty, and was more or less designed in a hurry. there is no real specification with regards to cabling. quality over RCA's is generally poor which is why many manufacturers have begun to move away form RCA.
