Updating gcc versions

Does anyone have any advice on updating gcc versions from 4.9 to 7.3? I have tried but I am getting some errors during `make`. I was hoping that someone has at least updated past 4.9 to a newer version and perhaps I can outline what I am doing. 4.9 is pretty good. Covers c++11 and a few features from c++14 and c++17 but it would be nice to take advantage of some newer features that I already use in other projects.
