    hi guys,
    i have a 6935g laptop and planning to buy a HDMI cable to connect it to my HDTV. can i use an HDMI Ver 1.4 for it and utilize its capabilities? or should i rather go for the ver 1.3 cable since it would not make a difference? Thanks.

    The 1.4 cable will work but 1.4-only features will not unless your notebook is also HDMI 1.4 compatible (which is not).
    HDMI 1.4 cables are rather expensive so if 1.3 is cheaper than 1.4 I'd go that way.
