Ideally you want at least half of the ball or more above the top of the driver face (where the top (crown) and clubface meet). This promotes better angles of attack and sets the ball in an area of the clubface that these new oversize drivers prefer for maximum distance.

"Tee it a little lower," they said... "You're losing distance," they said...

On the surface, the idea that drivers are still getting better today seems absurd. But as you’ll see with our 2016 Hot List, what makes drivers extra special today is how personal they can get thanks to the multiple levels of adjustability that are now commonplace.
