I’ve used at least six random $2 HDMI cables for 4K 60hz content. Anyone that thinks you need special HDMI cables for that is an idiot.

agreed. too many 0 and 1s being pushed through the cable. It'll heat the cable up and might catch fire. You don't want a HDMI fire. It's invisible yet super colorful.

If you read the first post, it says to select the black cable, which is 10gbps and cannot handle 4k/hdr/60fps. The red cable is 18gbps and can handle 4k/60fps, but it's not on sale.

I don't see how a 28awg can transmit more than 1080p and other data together. Get 26awg cable or lower. Save bet is 24, not cheap but more future proof.

Thank you. This confused me. If you are going to argue, use the right terms.
I was racking my head on why people are saying 18Ghz when I see the cable as 24Hz by a wide margin
