    Hi guys
    I just recently got a Asus ROG G750-JH and I got some questions

    For the Windows 8.1 drivers, I saw that we can get the drivers from here:
    http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/ASUS_ROG_G750JH/#support_Download_40
    The Windows 8 driver list also have a lot of other drivers that the Windows 8.1 driver list does not have, like Chipset, LAN, Card Reader, Touchpad, Utilities, Intel Rapid Storage Technology, Intel Management Engine. If I want to install Windows 8.1, should I take the Windows 8 drivers and install it on my copy of Windows 8.1?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Yes you can.
    You could also take the original manufacturer drivers though. That means go to the Intel website and download there most drivers. You should take the ASUS ATK and Asus Touchpad drivers form the ASUS page.
    Windows 8 actually provides you with most drivers already from Windows Updates. I would only add the latest WIFI and GPU driver (plus the before mentioned ASUS ATK, Touchpad).
