I appreciate this question relates to something to do with AV, but I needed an answer quickly!
Is there a difference between a 4K HDMI cable, and one not bearing the 4K ‘label’
Thanks!

richer sounds sold some non 4k hdmi cables at stupid prices recently , in order to make way for the 4k
ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

If your sources can't dish out 4K there's no need to change the HDMI cables.
Stick a 4K source in front and play 4K material from it and you'll need higher bandwidth cables.

Is that why that experimental 4K broadcast in the world cup didn't look any different to HD on my set up? I've got a fancy Mark Grant HDMI twixt box and set but it must be 6 years old at least.
