Yes, Dragonfly BSD likely to support this graphics card, I'll try to
start with i5-4570 (https://bsdnir.info/files/dfly/ my logs) 2D work
fine, 3D too lazy to find something and run, but like should work. The
same must be maintained, and OpenBSD.
Porting to direct, as I understand it is unlikely, but in FreeBSD has
already been done is not a small amount of work on the support of
these technologies from the kernel. Unfortunately, it seems to fall,
this one is not actively engaged, at least in public.
