The only thing that makes them ID differently is the way the video lines
are connected in the wiring harness.  In the non-AIOs, there's a separate
video board that feeds a slightly different signal back to the mobo,
changing the gestalt ID and thus the ID in most apps.

The 6500 board will ID as a 5500 when installed in an AIO (even a 580!),
and a 5500 board will ID as a 6500 when installed in, say, a 630.
