Is a 750W PSU enough for two GTX 460's and an AMD Phenom II X4 965? I'm also wondering if I'll get any bottlenecks? Thanks.
That is more than enough, the benchmark on Tomshardware drains ~420W on a 460SLI.
If you plan on buying 2x 460s together, don't. And that's regardless of the fact that SLI/CF is horrible in my opinion (double the fps, half at best of the perceived smoothness of a single card).

SLI scales a lot better than CrossFire

Agreed, SLI/CF is only good when going to the extreme (2-4x 480's) or when upgrading an older system.

True, but still not worth it at a first buy, unless you plan to do a 3-4 monitor setup.
I believe the 460 scales up to about 180%, possibly more
Ok, so I've got enough power. Do I need to worry about bottlenecks?

Not at all.
