And if so, how do I know if the cables on monoprice.com are in fact 120? If it doesn't say is it most likely 60?

They have different cables for 120Hz and 60Hz?!?!? Criminals taking advantage of the misinformed. Here's the deal: for the average person, buy expensive cables if the rest of your media system is absolutely top notch and your cables are the weakest link.... and that's only for analog cable (like speaker cables).
Do not waste your money on expensive digital cables, HDMI included, there is no difference in signal quality, you either have signal or you don't. The only difference may be in the quality of the physical construction of the cable, I guess.... still a stretch for a cable that sits behind your TV.
