is there anything to consider for display cables (self.pcmasterrace)

I need longer display cables for a better managed cable situation but I'm not entirely sure on what to buy.

I have an 160htz 2k Ultrawide and another 2k Ultrawide stacked on top of that. Does length matter? I have a standing desk too

I guess what Im wondering is, is there a recommended cable brand or just get whatever, and does length matter for performance?

Appreciate any assistance

LTT did a cable test and from the cables they tested the DP ones were more consistently good, while more of their hdmi cables were bad or not up to spec.

Makes sense, most people buy DP tend to know more about specs and stuff, that would make crappy stuff riskier.
