nah man just buy any hdmi cable honestly, even hdmi 1.4 can do 4k 30fps which is all the ps4 outputs to my knowledge. HDMI is digital, so distance wont matter too much at less than 30 ft or so

HDMI cables are not generation specific. That's determined by the sending and receiving components. They will default to the lowest common denominator, and the cable has absolutely nothing to do with that as long as all of the conductors are in good condition.

Sure, but your comment implied that cables are revision specific, which they absolutely are not.
