Alex,

Welcome

Every thing you should need to know is in the handbook. You will need to
read the section on installing Xwindows, then chose a Desktop
environment (Gnome or KDE).

There are some minor issues with nvida video 3d cards but there are
nvida drivers for BSD. ATI cards are a bit more of a problem. In both
cases search the mailing list archives the info is there.
