Thank you OP! Amazon has too many HDMI cable brands, but I have been buying Monoprice for years with good results. Hopefully this will clear up my HDCP issue that sometimes pops up on my Roku. Signal passes from Roku to Pioneer receiver to Samsung TV.

FYI: Same price direct from Monoprice: https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=42079

Monoprice USED to be the place for top quality cables but things have changed.

eg.....I've heard of people purchasing Monoprice famous 100% Oxygen Free Copper speaker wire and receiving Copper Clad wire. (Aluminum wire coated in copper)

The only Ritz I buy is crackers. Kidding aside, I would wager the Monoprice is better quality, but you can take your chances and get two cables for less than the price of this one.

I see that monoprice sells in-wall cables. Is OP's cable OK to use in-wall?

I've been looking at the new 4k 240hz oled monitors. Are these 8k 2.1 hdmi cables insufficient?

You're going to have a bigger issue finding a source that supports 4k @240hz unless it's just for media playback which would be a waste. No GPU I know of will support that resolution and refresh unless you're playing very old games

HDMI 2.1 can do up to 4k@120Hz, so a HDMI spec/cable does not yet exist that can do 240Hz.

You need DP 2.0 for 4k@240Hz

Monoprice charges shipping, starting at $4 for one, $7.50 for two, and scales up a bit more with each additional one added. Even with shipping, it still might be better to buy from Monoprice. I don't see any mention of the lifetime warranty on Amazon, and you know you're getting the authentic cable when buying directly from Monoprice.

That's what I'm seeing on most cables stats... but the manual for the MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED very clearly states that it's 2 HDMI and 1 DP ports do support 4k@240Hz:

Supports HDMI™ CEC, 3840x2160@240Hz as specified in HDMI™ 2.1.
Supports 3840x2160@240Hz as specified in HDMI™ 2.1.
Supports 3840x2160@240Hz as specified in DisplayPort 1.4.

Something doesn't quite jive.

EDIT:

It looks like the monitor achieves 4k@240Hz using Display Stream Compression on DP 1.4 and HDMI 2.1.

So the question still remains whether good 8K 48gb HMDI 2.1 cables can get the job done... I'm not seeing that info anywhere... but guessing the answer is "yes".

Thanks for the link. I learned something new today. Pretty amazing tech!

Going down the rabbit hole, I found the PS5 does not support DSC and the HDMI 2.1 port only supports 32Gbps bandwidth, so that's why its VRR maxes out at 4k@120Hz. So given that example, both the source and monitor have to support DSC for it to work, so now there's a new "yes, but" when it comes to saying if a cable can do a certain resolution + refresh rate.
