In Reply to: HDMI cable Hz spec. posted by Tony D. on June 11, 2010 at 08:51:46:
SF tech was first to make the point below, but to reiterate, the question is simply where does the 120Hz refresh take place -- the player, the cable or the display? The answer is the display. And that's why your "colostomy bag of a salesman" is full of shit.
Furthermore, monoprice.com sells a 6ft HDMI cable for about $4 that will deliver the full 340MHz bandwidth and 10.2Gb/s transfer rate of HDMI (ie, the max spec). They are certified Category 2 HDMI cables. Spending more than that on a 6ft cable is analogous to flushing your money down the toilet (Please, paper money only -- no coins. This has been a PSA from the American Plumbers Association.).
Now to the funny part (yes, there's more). Below is a link to the Knowledge Base for HDMI cables on the monoprice website. Scroll down about 2/3 to the questions about 120Hz refresh rates. One of them directly addresses your question.
