Support for the card will depend much more on the version of X you have installed and whether that version supports the card (assuming you will be running X). If it is just for the system console I don't believe it will matter at all, unless downtime is a consideration. If it is I would combine the card install with the 4.7 upgrade reboot downtime. - Mike > I've got a 'new' old video card that i want to put in my bsd box.
