Is it advisable to do the upgrade from windows 8.1 to windows 10? Will there be any driver conflicts and will the asus settings and stuff that came with the factory installed windows 8.1 be gone after the upgrade? Thanks in advance.

Can't say I've encountered any problems with my 8.1-10 upgrade on my G750, and on my G751JY that came with win 10... Other than having to turn off a lot of bad Win 10 settings.

G751JT user here. Everything works fine, only issue I had was with the touchpad. IF my memory serves me right, I had to use an older version of the smart gesture, because the new one didn't have mouse detection or it didn't work properly, and the touchpad scrolling works upside down, as in move fingers up and screen goes down, move fingers down and it scrolls up.

Copy your esupport folder {1.5GB} it has all the software that came with your laptop u can use the esupport folder to install the original software after the W10 upgrade , they will work with W10 , W10 is better for gamming W10 is faster I my opinion

Ok so the desktop rog background pic and all the asus software is in the esupport folder which needs to be reinstalled after upgrading to windows 10? Are u reccomending installing windows 10 using a usb /dvd drive method over just installing direct after download?

Best way seems to be USB, and then start your upgrade from within windows. Worked for me on several computer upgrades with out issues
G752VY-DH72 Win 10 Pro
512 GB M.2 Samsung 960 Pro
1 TB Samsung 850 pro 2.5 format
980m GTX 4 GB
32GB DDR 4 Standard RAM
