Only a very minor difference but the top screen is slightly better. And I think 1080p without AA looks better than 720p with 4xAA.

The top one is 720p upscalled to 1080p

It's 900p though, not 720p right?

Anyway, obviously 1080p without AA always beats 720p with 4xAA, because 1080p takes 2.25 more power to render than 720p, while 4xAA takes only rufly 50% more power to render than 0xAA.
