under 400 is bad when on best settings.
Not quite. Depending on the refresh rate of your monitor anything could look smooth really. The highest refresh rate on a monitor to this day is a 240Hz, which basically means that you can notice the difference of anything below 240, but anything above that is unnoticeable. Seeing as how 240Hz monitors are fairly new, I'm guessing you have a 120Hz or a 60Hz, which means you're not going to be able to notice a change with any fps higher than that refresh rate.

200 FPS - Average
150 FPS - What is happening...
100 FPS - This is horrible!
50- FPS - I'm going to murder my PC.
Unlikely that 100 fps is horrible unless you use a monitor with a refresh rate over 120hz.

Your graphics card desides your max framerate.
Your Internet decides how many of those frames are going to be in a second :p

I didn't mean that FPS was bad, I meant getting it was bad for my computer; I don't ever have under 400.
