Configurable.
The best field of view depends on many variables. For instance, how large the monitor is, are you using eyefinity, is the aspect ratio nonstandard, how far you are from the screen.
Besides that, different people have different preferences for it, leading to some people feeling simulation sickness at 90 FOV while others feel it at 75 FOV.
