I upgraded my FreeBSD server from 11.1 to 11.2 a couple of days ago. The main reason I did so was in the hope that I would finally get accelerated graphics working but I've had no such luck.

Hello. I got a "new" graphics card (Radeon HD 6870, not listed here but 3D acceleration seems to work). I'd like to test its 3D graphics and GPGPU performance on FreeBSD. Are there any suitable utilities for this, for example, in the packages or ports?
