Yes cancel it, that cable will only be of use with a HDMI 2.1 port.
Just get the amazon basics HDMI cable that's all you need.
The cables should work with HDMI 1.4 and 2.1 so they will not be of 'no' use. To get the full benefit though, you will need to be connected to HDMI 2.1 devices. All these cables are like pipes with differing diameters that allow data to flow from one device to another the standard HDMI being the narrowest and would only cope with a smaller flow of liquid before it starts to back up.
The 2.1 cables should allow a LOT more data to flow through 8Gb/s) but if the device is only capable of sending/receiving 18Gb/s (2.0) then that's the maximum amount of data that will flow through it. Its the same as plugging in a high speed (2.0) cable into HDMI 1.4 devices- they still work too but its a bit of a waste.
