Does the Free BSD support the Asus GeForce EN7600GS graphic

The Nvidia driver is a binary and is only released for 32bit
versions of FreeBSD.

It is only required for 3D acceleration. For regular desktop use,
the open source driver included in X is sufficient.

Not familar with Core 2 Dou, but the AMD dual core 64bit procs can
easily be run a SMP kernel in 32bit more. I am currently doing that
on my machine here because I like the 3D accel.
