Install new device on Freebsd
Basically, the standard FreeBSD installation media contain almost all the drivers that you need. A notable exception is the graphics driver, as SirDice has mentioned above, you’ll need to install that package. Then Xorg should run almost exactly the same as you’re used to on Linux.
Regarding the WiFi NIC, FreeBSD’s support for the newer standards is somewhat weak. Depending on what chip it is exactly, at least a/b/g/n should work, but I’m not sure about ac (I try to avoid WiFi with FreeBSD myself). If possible, use a wired network connection, i.e. RJ45 cable. These usually have excellent FreeBSD support. If your machine doesn’t have an RJ45 port, alternatively you can use a USB network adapter.
Similarly, FreeBSD’s support for Bluetooth is rather weak, especially for Bluetooth audio devices (wireless speakers, headphones, etc.). If you’re lucky it works, but it may as well fail to work. If you need this, there are certain kinds of workarounds, e.g. see this thread.
There are a few useful commands for looking at your hardware and drivers. Most of them require root privileges, i.e. type them as the “root” user.
