Higher = better, but: A recent meta-analysis of 676 patients on IG infusions found less frequency of pneumonias at higher IgG troughs (up to 1000 mg/dl). However, there are other factors to consider such as correct diagnosis of cvid (have you ever had your vaccine titers checked?) or history of lung damage (did your previous lung infections lead to scarring or bronchiectasis, which can make you more susceptible?).
