yes it will run fine dude 
woohoo I've ran shogun 2 on a single 580 not so long ago and it was fine.
Also two cards are going to give you great settings with a really good amount of frames! i found one card would only give me about 30 or so when I zoomed in and watched the fighting on max settings.

no worries,
also if you download nvidia experience, its beta software, that sets your settings to optimal in each game. Shogun 2 is listed on there, so defo worth getting. Also rome II will probably follow the same suit.

Hi again, i was recently told by comment on youtube that the 670sli idea was not good because they only have 2GB of vram. HERE IS WHAT HE SAID -
"if you are going SLI the 4GB would be a good idea.
You shouldn't run low on VRAM before they get low on power."
"SL setups last.. for example 470 SLI is about the same FPS as a 680.
One would expect 670 sli to perform like an 880."
I have also been told 2GB vram will not be enogh soon and games like skyrim need 4GB vram, Nedd help with all this lol!!!

Hi, i am really stuck now, because The games i like playing are demanding (crysis 3, shogun 2, rome 2 when it comes out, skyrim with mods), i don't think having cards with 2GB vram will be enough (GTX 670sli), will it be worth just saving up for a single GTX 4GB 690?

I'm running a single EVGA 2gb 680 and that is more than enough to handle games on max settings, on single screen.
i would only suggest getting 4gb card, IF you are contemplating gaming over three screens.
+1 to what the guys above have said, if you know now you want to game in 3 monitors and at high resolutions then definitely consider a 4Gb card, however 2Gb is fine for most games and most uses. Skyrim (for example) only uses more than 4Gb when heavily modded (I think) even if gaming in 3 screens.
