I'm about to change the dining room floor and while at it thought I would
run some Cat5e to where the TV / PS3 lives back to the router / slave PC
in the hall cupboard.
Is there any advantage on using Cat6?
The rest of the house has been done in Cat5.
I'd hate to do it then find I really need Cat6 in a year or so.

Over short lengths you are unlikely to notice any difference.
Over 100m you might.
