The card will work. It won't be amazingly fast. The 850M has 640 CUDA cores. For comparison, my GTX 780ti has 2880 CUDA cores and is pretty snappy. Your biggest drawback will be the limited vram. At only 2 Gb total, you will only have about 1.5 Gb for rendering (rest is used for display). That does not allow for complex scenes, remember all geometry and textures must fit into your vram.
