If ever that gets upgraded, it'll also be most of the hardware in the box. My FreeBSD machine has a GT-730 based card. When it boots linux, it uses the 390 driver. For some reason on FreeBSD 340 works but not 390 (at least that was the case when I installed, ~18 months ago, I should perhaps try again). A+ Paul
