just get a cheap one first.

upgrade only when you are still not pleased with the cheap ones.
no point going all the way without first trying out which one suits you.

For branded, 30 to 40 isn't too bad imo. The cheapest I found was for <20 bucks in Harvey Norman.

If you have a slightly bigger budget i'll recommend getting the kimberkable HDMI cables. Since already have such a high end gaming machine why save on the connections? Search on the web and u will find it on the net. If you have problems looking for it, PM me i'mm send u the url.

i bought a $16 HDMI cable from SLS 6th level for my PS3. been using it since May 07'

quite satisfied although I've yet to get myself a high-end cable as comparison
