That's not to say that a quality HDMI cable won't make a difference.
Blue Jeans Cable has inexpensive, well-made cables.

Edit: To clarify a bit further... Your Blu-ray/DVD player, cable box, etc. transmits video at a rate of 60Hz (or 24Hz in the case of 1080p24 playback option.) That's the frame rate of the video, not the data rate of the digital stream. You still need a cable that supports the full speed of the interface. That's what the various HDMI specs describe, among other things. Monster's "120Hz" spec is misleading to say the least.
