There are proprietary and open source drivers for nvidia, ati, and intel. I've used the proprietary nvidia drivers in the past with freebsd, currently use the open source ones with freebsd. For nvidia, the quality is on par with linux, some niggling things every now and then and scares about upgrading, but overall good with some tuning/tweaking. I can't do HD video though currently, but I don't really care. I use fvwm2 for my WM.
