Drawing quality controls the number of polygons used to render everything. A lot of cards handle lower polygon counts w/ AA better than they handle higher polygon counts w/o AA.

In game, I have it set for 60fps cap. When I had drawing quality set to Highest, I'd have to lower that to 30fps to avoid serious lag in combat w/ particle effects and such.
This is very true... 10 is the equivalent to double buffering, if I recall....
8 is standard...
I run Max on everything (at 1920x1080) and 8 on draw quality and it works great
