Hi,

Not sure if I'm best asking this here or in the Graphics Card section but...
I'm wondering if there's a way to make sure you're getting a good DP 1.4 cable and not something that's so borderline it causes flickering or whatever?
I need to connect a 4K/144Hz monitor with a DP 1.4a connector and don't want to spend time and money trying multiple cables until I get lucky.

Is it as simple as buying a DP 2.0/2.1 cable as this will be over spec'd for 1.4a?

Thanks.
