Stumbled across this thread in a google search & maybe I can help.
Here's the BIOS dump (.ROM) file from a Gateway DX4300 series RS780 Foxconn (780G) AM2+/AM3 Phenom II X4 uATX motherboard. Motherboard looks exactly the same as the AM2+ RS780 Foxconn used in the Gateway GT5692, GT5676, GT5694 & DX4200....I'm not exactly sure if there's any real differences between the RS780 Foxconn AM2+ mentioned for those earlier Gateway models versus the newer DX4300 RS780 uATX AM2+/AM3 Foxconn motherboards other than the Gateway DX4300's Award American Megatrends BIOS is more recent (04/24/2009)
for the DX4300, which allows for Phenom II X4 AM2+/AM3 compatibility [95W TDP]...doubtful if the RS780 in the Gateway GT5676, GT5694, GT5692 or DX4200-UB001A could recognize any of the AM2+/AM3 Phenom II X4 CPUs with 6Mb L2/ 6Mb L3 such as the Phenom II X4 805, 810, 820...etc.. like the newer RS780 in the DX4300 with the more recent (04/24/2009) Award American Megatrends BIOS can....still either RS780 Foxconn (Bengal) has that 95W Thermal Design Power Limitation on Phenom X4 CPUs installed:
