Need advice for Wifi 6 router 150€ aprox. (ax58u v2, Deco X60 v3.2)

Hello,
I habe been reading a LOT for the last fee days about routers and mesh systems.

Context:
Just move into a new house that is 1 floor 1000 square feet (95 m2) my ISP provided a 2015 Wifi 5 router (MitraStar GPT 2541GNAC) for 500/500mb speed.

I suspect its CPU to be a
Broadcom BCM68380 and radio Broadcom BCM43217TKMLG

My goal is to take advantage of my Internet plan upgrading to a Wifi 6 router and buy a TP-Link TX55E Wifi 6 pcie card for my PC which I used wired to ethernet in my old house (not possible here)

I also have a Lenovo Yoga 14s and Xiaomi Redmi K40, both Wifi 6 capable.

I also would like to stream Moonlight gaming into Fire Stick 4k in a contiguous room.

Initially I was about to get a 2 nodes Wifi 6 TP Link DECO X60 v3.2 AX5400 mesh to connect my PC using ethernet, but It seemed overkill since the house is not that big, then I thought that maybe a decent Wifi 6 router would do and I came across the older AX58u/AX3000 and AX82u

They used BCM43684 which seems to be fairly good in terms of range but they also used the slower BCM6750 1.5 Ghz tri-core CPU...

Nowadays I can find V2 of these devices at Amazon for 110€/150€ the V2 change is that they now use a SoC BCM 6756 which seems to be worst at 5 GHz range...


With current ISP router I amb getting 500/500 mb next to the router and 100/100 mb at the furthest point in my house, I am afraid that any of these routers will provide worse range since they do not have dedicated 5GHz chip

Questions:
Are TUF AX3000 V2, AX58U V2 and AX82U exactly the same or do they have some antenna improvements?

Will I get better connectivity with DECO X50 / X60 3.2 mesh system using 2 nodes?

Any other recommendation I can get for about 150€?

I do not need USB nor advanced features, I just want a superior Wifi 6 stable system for a few devices and streaming

Thank you!

What's the local price on GT-AX6000 or RT-AX88U Pro (basically same, different clothes)? For 1k ft^2 should literally bathe you in usable wifi.

Not guaranteed in Europe. Different building materials and 200mW power limit on non-DFS channels.

Most likely, but the main/satellite must be places properly. Get the Deco from a place you can return it or exchange it and see what it can do for you. Expect about 800Mbps from main and about 400Mbps from satellite to common 2-stream AX client. This is what wireless backhaul dual-band system can do on 80MHz non-DFS. If you are lucky you can try channel 100 (higher power) or 160MHz (higher throughput).
