Put more in that you think you’ll need, and think about how to then get patch cables from there to devices - depending on fireplaces/doors etc you might want some extra ones.
I put two minimum in every room when we refurbished, plus more in the office, and lounge, but have since moved things around and now the office is the babies room I wished I had more elsewhere. You’ll never regret putting in too many!
I barely had one device attached at the start, now four years later I have two switches, and its chocka in there!. I hard-wire everything if I can… I out some in the loft too and thats useful for adding in wifi access points hard wired back to the network.
I’m sure you’ve thought about where to bring all the wires back to, and a patch panel. It makes sense to buy the best performance/cost ratio cable you can get, although I still went 5e even though at the time could have gone 6 - the reality is it really doesn’t matter that much in a home environment.
I use two netgear switches now. One recently acquired ‘smart’ switch GS116Ev2 at the patch panel (smart, just because I was interested to see some of the data rather than use VLAN or anything like that), and its predecessor an 8 port ‘dumb’ GS308. Both are very cheap and great little devices - small and silent.
I’m pretty technical and wired the whole house myself, with a little help from the electricians pulling some cables through where I couldnt reach, and smashing out some of the sockets (some I did). In an Edwardian house not much chance of conduits here… It was very rewarding, but wiring the patch panel was a pain as it was in a tight closet and very uncomfortable! Its fiddly work!
I had to make some concessions, like running close to and even along mains cables etc sometimes, which isnt ideal, but I dont see any dropped packets. Whether noise gets into hifi stuff through EMI/RFI I’ve no idea. I dont see any evidence of any dropped packets or errors anywhere, so I think it was all fine.
