Naively, I would want x > 100%; after all, not being able to work doesn't just cost the employee salary. It costs them gained experience, bonuses, and vesting, to say nothing of a black hole on their resume. It's also better for the economy as a whole to have a strong disincentive to using noncompetes, even if the employee is compensated.

It can also be worth asking whether they've ever invoked the non-compete for employees of your title/role. If the answer is 'no', they you might let it slide and focus on other aspects of the negotiation.
