I was looking for HDMI cable and found this 4 meter gold plated cable for only £2.89 from this trusted seller on eBay.
Not a bad price for a 4 meter cable, in case anyone is looking for one.

Gold plated? More brass than sense you lot.
It's digital, it makes no difference.

Idk if its just me but I prefer gold plated cables, if the price difference is minimal. Just look nicer to me :smiley:

I'm looking at buying a new 4k tv and chasing it into the wall. Does the hdmi cable really make much difference or would this do the trick ?

I suppose you could always read the spec on the Ebay listing ....
"Supports Resolution up to 4k x 2k"
:neutral_face:
As an aside, if you plan to raggle them into the wall, I'd recommend putting trunking in the wall in case the cable packs in so you can remove and replace. Or, at least, run a spare in at the same time so you have some capacity in the event it fails. And given that you're going for the cheapest HDMI lead on the internet at the moment, that would seem sensible ....
(I have two raggled into my wall. I didn't use trunking. But at least have a spare. With hindsight, I would have used trunking.)

I would'nt use the cheapest hdmi cable you can find but also I would'nt pay more than £5-£8 for a cable. I have found a £5 cable worked for one connection whereas a cheaper one did not. In theory all hdmi cables should work.

Yeah I get it, the 87 in your username is a homage to Alien 3.

Hence why gold is potentially better. The price difference is minimal these days anyway.

It either works or it doesn't. If the metal in the connector it's conductive enough the cable just wouldn't work.
