Nvidia GTX 260m for 3d modeling?

[Hw911]

Im starting 3d modeling with autocad in about a month in school, so i ordered an Alienware m15x for this. here are the specs:

 

Intel Core i7 720QM 1.6GHz (2.8 GHz Turbo Mode, 6MB Cache)

6GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1333MHz 1 x 2048MB + 1 x 4096MB

15.6-inch Wide FHD 1920x1080 (1080p) WLED

500GB SATAII 7,200RPM

1GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M

 

I know that the quadro is better for 3d modeling, but not sure why

 

Will the system i ordered do a good job with this?

 

Do i need to use different drivers for the gtx 260m? (cuda)?

 

Sorry I'm a little behind on new hardware.

 

I'm sure someone here has experience with 3d modeling.

 

Thanks
