Is there any difference between these two fans?

Is it really just one of them having an LED?

no, it;s more than that

the 212 with LED has Aluminium spacing between the copper heatpipes while the 212EVO keeps them close together

the 212EVO is superior, but 6500 doesn't need that much cooling - the boxed cooler will do it's job just fine
