4K/HDR? Don't skimp on cheap cables, choose these!

I have a 4k/HDR Roku Ultra, a 2016 Marantz 4k/HDR AVR and a Vizio P65 4k/HDR TV. I first tried RevainBasics cables claiming "up to 18GB capable" but none of them passed the Roku 4k/HDR test once connected and I couldn't get an image at more than normal 4k. I took a chance and tried these Monoprice certified cables and the first shot after connecting passed the Roku test and the image came out in full 4k/HDR. I'm not the type to ever pay extra for "certified" cables, but now I feel confident when it comes to those and full 4k/HDR. Any other HDMI cables will probably work fine if you just want 1080p or regular 4k, but if you want all the features of a setup like mine, spend a few bucks more and get certified cables! Just note that these cables are thicker and stiffer than cheaper quality cables, which can make routing around tight corners more difficult, but that's not enough for me to deduct a star.
