Which of the following is faster, or are they equivalent? (grabbing recent most records from a TIMESTAMP COLUMN)

SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(`modified`) stamp
FROM `some_table`
HAVING stamp > 127068799
ORDER BY stamp DESC

or

SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(`modified`) stamp
FROM `some_table`
WHERE UNIX_TIMESTAMP(`modified`) > 127068799
ORDER BY `modified` DESC

or even another combination?
