One thing I don't understand, which the article just mentions in passing...
What is the difference between "high-speed" HDMI cables and standard cables? Are high-speed cables worth the extra money?
- nitrogen 15y agoHigh-speed cables are certified to run at the full HDMI bandwidth (allowing 3D, high-bit-depth color, higher resolution, etc.), while standard-speed cables only carry standard 8-bit-per-channel RGB or YUV data at 1080p or lower (source: comparison between [1] and [2]). On Monoprice, high-speed cables aren't significantly more expensive, so one should always buy the high-speed cable.
