Sorry, I was confused by your earlier post

I change the video card for an ATI radeon card, I ordered I wait to receive it!
This Xenocara page lists the available video drivers in the monolithic xorg that OpenBSD uses.

This Freshports search for xgi does not show any FreeBSD support for xgi video

On my NetBSD 7-1 amd64 there is a man page for xgi video and also an entry for the modular xorg xf86-video-xgi driver

I do have 4 older ATI-rage/Radeon video cards for agp slots. They should all work in FreeBSD/OpenBSD/NetBSD/Linux. If you cover shipping, you can have all 4 of them.
Edit: After some more searching, it appears that the sis driver supports xgi chipsets including yours.
Sis video

In order to use the sis driver you need this in your xorg.conf or xorg.conf.d
Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Volari Z7"
Driver "sis"
EndSection
