Nope, won't work, E-series does not use the FM2 socket for one thing. Nor does the board support anything above E-1800.https://support.gateway.com/s/desktop/2012/Gateway/SX/SX2100/SX2100sp2.shtml

The E2-1800 is not upgradable,its a BGA socket which means its soldered onto the motherboard.

Yes probably, just make sure it does not have a proprietary design.
