Which HDMI cable should i buy?

(1/5) > >>

muesli:
Hi guys,

i would like to buy a 5m HDMI cable to connect my laptop with my TV (Full HD). the only problem is that i found many different cables with huge differences in prize (ranging from 17€ to 38€ :o). so i'm wondering if you could help me to find the right one.

i saw cables with HDMI 1.3, with 1.3b and with 1.4 - does that matter?
i saw cables with gold contacts and with 24kt. gold contacts - same q?
some cables say "high quality" - does that matter? :)

ok i will post the links.. 17€, 20€, 23€, 27€ and 38€ (i guess you should understand it even if it is german.. :-\)

sorry for such a stupid question but i really don't know what's the difference and i don't want to spend more money than needed..
thank you for your help!!

Mag-X:
Buy which ever one is cheapest. It'll work.

Lupin:
The gold contacts won't easily corrode.

I agree with the above advice. Unless you have very high end equipment, you probably won't notice the difference between the different cables.

vuzedome:
Even if its in some language that I don't know, but its safe to say that going for a cheap one will do for what you're trying to do.

Thank you guys! :) So even blu ray rips should play fine with the cheapest cable - right?
