    Your laptop is using Intel® Pentium® Dual-Core B950, and the other three you mention is not in your laptop. According to Asus site they have released this brand with 4 different processor. They usually do that to almost all the models, they come with different processors, HDD size, Ram etc.
    Have a look at Asus.com

    Yes, it should work. Sometimes there are different motherboard revisions for quad core, but I haven't seen that in a while. You can always try contacting asus customer support or your reseller if you want a definitive answer.
