Assuming the i3 supports 64-bit, it should work fine.  You generally don't
need any drivers for chipsets in FreeBSD.  However, specific parts of the
chipset do use drivers (e.g. if the motherboard has an on-board Ethernet
interface, then that Ethernet interface needs a driver).  I've no idea what
devices on are the motherboard you asked about, but most common devices
(e.g. Intel NICs) work fine.
