how much Gbit/s do I need?
I bought a rbk852 but what if when the 6gbit/s are too much and I could save money with a lower system like rbk763? I don't know how much I need?

Where are you seeing this 6Gbs at?
IF your looking at the spec sheet and seeing 6Gb for wifi, that is combine total connection rate for the 2.4 and 5Ghz radios is all. Actual connection rates will be different depending upon your client devices you connect.

Kind of depends on how many devices you have and what the size of your home is. Orbi is mostly based on how big your home is and how many devices.
