What cable to use from HDMI of my M2 Macbook Pro?

I am getting a new 16" Macbook Pro

I have an 27" LG Ultrafine Display that I'd like to connect to one of the USB C ports with a thunderbolt 4 cable USB-C to USB-c

I also have an 27" LG HDR 4K Display with a HDMI port that I would like to connect to the HDMI port of the new MBP.

What cable should I get? any recommendations?

Will it support the display?

Thanks

MacBook Pro (M2 Pro, 2023)

HDMI cables you want for HDMI-only Displays (higher resolutions than 720p TV sets) are marked as Certified with an anti-counterfeiting tag and are labeled:


"Premium High Speed HDMI cable" or that + "with Ethernet" --OR--

"Ultra High Speed HDMI cable" or that + "48G"


Cables with No Certification tags are good for your standard 720p TV set, and not much more.
