Just read an article via Flipboard from Forbes magazine on potential problems with Nvidia video drivers and Windows 10. I plan on upgrading myself, but I don't specially use SLI as mentioned in the article.
Just a heads up on potential issues for us multi monitor players :)

Good reason to hold off on upgrading for a while.

Thanks for posting this.

Usually a pretty good idea to hold off on Windows upgrades anyway at least until the first few patch cycles have arrived to fix the inevitable compatibility/security holes. I tend to wait for the first Service Pack release before upgrading.

[edit] This is someone that's worked in OS driver qual and OS Test at Compaq/HP for years; and nothing changed judging by what happened during the Windows 8 debacle.

I had a BAD experience on my friend's win10, don't know if I'll ever upgrade to it. I'm fine with my sweet windows 7.
