On http://www.gizmosphere.org/why-gizmo/gizmoboard/ hold your mouse over
the PCB picture at the bottom, a bit below the VGA port. Somewhere
you'll mouse over "Realtek RTL8111DL Gigabit Ethernet controller (on
back)".

So It's actually a separate chip, since the AMD on-chip stuff seems to
be a not very useful broadcom chip. (see Jens' comments on gerrit:
http://review.coreboot.org/#/c/2581/)

Most AMD boards seem to use a separate chip, usually realtek, for that
reason.
