Yes, that's right. The RGB connection is the VGA 15 pin connector similar
to that on monitors. I'd advise the OP to check before he buys a new TV

Many now have DVI and HDMI either instead of or in addition to VGA,
and as long as you have or can add DVI or HDMI out on your computer
you can get even higher resolution.
Hardly ANY HDTVs come without HDMI today
