They're not the same thing. They just have roughly the same performance hit since they both cause everything to be rendered at 16 times the native resolution.

SSAA uses a different scaling filter. It's generally better in terms of image quality.

In general AMD GPUs are more likely to have issues with using an HDTV. It's really a luck of the draw type of thing that depends on your gpu model, driver version, and HDTV model. The most common of these is an overscanning issue that causes black bars around the image (the image doesn't fill the entire screen).

That's not entirely true. It has a larger effect on performance than it generally does in PC games but it's certainly not the only factor that effects performance.
