Standard vs. Medium - what determines it?

I have a question about monitor resolution. I'm assuming it's not the tube that determines the resolution capability, but the output from the game board and whether the chassis supports it. Is that correct?

For example, if I have a game that outputs medium resolution, I need a chassis that supports medium resolution. I'm assuming that certain chassis assemblies can support both standard and medium resolution, which would explain why I'm seeing things like "For sale: CGA/EGA chassis".

Thanks for the info.
