Is the HDMI cable a 1.4 or 2.0/4k compatible spec?

The cable is 1.4. However, keep in mind that 1.4 will support 4k. The limitation is frame rate (30fps).

I am not knowledgeable in the IT realm, so didn't know to look for a difference when buying. So, I finally found your answer on the literature that came in the box with the product. At the bottom of the specifications list it says that the product "meets 1.4 standard". The other specifications stated are: HDMI male to HDMI male connector, copper wire conductors, gold connectors, triple shielded, supports ethernet, supports audio return, supports deep color, 4K resolution capable, 3D and 1080 capable. The product does what I need, with no hitch.

I'm assuming it's the hdmi cable. I just ordered my tv so I can't be certain, but from what I've read I don't think this tv is hdmi 1.3 compatible.

Don't actually own this set (yet), but, according to the HDMI industry association, 4K via HDMI 1.4 maxes out at 30Hz. See http://www.hdmi.org/manufacturer/hdmi_1_4/hdmi_1_4_faq.aspx#21. Would be great to know if LG or any other mfr already install HDMI 2.0 in any 4K set now. HDMI 2.0 standard was officially released in Fall 2013 and allows for 4K at 60p.

I'm not certain that it is HDMI 1.4a. Are you hoping to channel audio output from your television back into you computer?

"Despite what you may read, there is no such thing as a DisplayPort 1.1 cable and DisplayPort 1.2 cable. A standard DisplayPort cable, including the so-call DisplayPort 1.1 cables, will work for any DisplayPort configuration including the new capabilities enabled by DisplayPort 1.2, including 4K and multi-stream capabilities."http://www.displayport.org/cables/how-to-choose-a-displayport-cable-and-not-get-a-bad-one/

Yes the one ending on 400 is the latest version. I just updated from 300 to this, and it solved all sorts of HDMI intermittent cutout issues I was having.

The reality is tricky. The ports are HDMI 2.0, but only in that they support 4:2:0 chroma subsampling. The display itself is only capable of 4:4:0 (which isn't a valid HDMI subsampling mode), so the higher bandwidth mode of HDMI2 is not actually used (or supported) and you're stuck with half-resolution chroma (in both X and Y) with your 4k luminance. That's fine for games and movies, but bad for sharp, colored text and drawings.

Hi I'm sorry If it's not Displayport 1.2 , it's not compatible with this 2560x1440 resolution. Thank you.

it supports 4k with display port I know.not sure about HDMI. but you will need more than one to play any game at that resolution.

I believe that the v1.4 is designed for 3D Blue Ray devices and this particular model does not support 3D. If your other HDMI cable still works with it then more than likely that would be why. Hopefully this helps.

I'm sure it will have 1.4Samsung says it is required for 3d, though many people are finding that good High Speed 1.3 HDMI cables will still work, though they won't give you the full benefit of 1.4 like the audio return and networking.

N Singh, or anyone who is technical :) What is the practical significance of it having HDMI 1.2 vs. HDMI 1.3? Am I losing anything with HDMI 1.2?

From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI): High Speed HDMI 1.3 cables can support all HDMI 1.4 features except for the HDMI Ethernet Channel.

Hello, As far as I know it will work with 4k just fine. But if you spent the money for a 4k monitor I would look for a larger diameter cable with shielding.
