FreeBSD is an operating system; you would run it instead of Windows, although if you have enough disk space, you could dual-boot between the two.  Read the fine documentation here:

  http://www.freebsd.org/about.html
  http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html

...which includes a discussion of hardware requirements and additional software which people commonly install.
