HDMI 1.4a or DVI cable?

[Wrathfulram]

I just purchased a Asus 144hz monitor http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B2HH7G0?tag=intercept-kb-20 and I am super confused on what type of cable to use for this monitor. I have been all over the internet and get a mixed awnser everwhere I go. Can I get a 144hz through a HDMI 1.4a or do I need to use a dual link dvi-d cable?

Thank you for your time!

Thank you SuperSubZero, and its a definitive answer, I dont have the monitor yet and looking online for the manual didn't cross my mind.

Another question, I did end up buying a HDMI cable thinking thats what I needed, so does the dual link dvi cable that comes with the monitor good? or should I go for a aftermarket gold plated blah blah blah dvi cable to get the best picture possible?

The included cable should be fine.
