RGB = red, green, blue. The three basic colors, with which all other colors are created.
With RGB you transmit the values for red, green and blue separately. Like VGA and DVI as well, they also transmit RGB values.

Component is YUV. It derives from RGB, but it's a different colorspace.

VGA can also transmit HD resolutions. The thing is, your TV can't display 1920x1080, so the question is: Will it automatically downconvert 1920x1080 to 1280x720, or would you have to feed the monitor with a 720p signal.
But if you can't output a VGA signal with the XBox it doesn't matter anyway.
