I have ASUS GU501 which mainly the same as Zephyrus M GM501. Here are the things that I still can't get working: Trackpad (can't even detect it), NVIDIA.

You don't have to change your OS. You can dual boot Ubuntu 18.04 alongside Windows 10. My current configuration is a Zephyrus M that hasn Ubuntu 18.04 running installed with NVIDIA drivers.
