Hello,
I have a diablotek 750 watt psu and I wanted to know if I could run CF HD6950s
AMD Phenom x6 1090t 3.21 Ghz
Corsair XMS3 8GB ram
Asus m4a79gtd-deluxe mobo
Also, would there be a bottle neck ?
I am also planning on getting 8 more gbs of ram.

The specs on your PSU are:
+3.3V@25A, +5@25A, +12V@54A, -12V@0.6A, +5 VSB@2A
So, with 54 amps on the rail, I think you have sufficient power to CF two 6950s.

As for bottle-necking, not an issue with that CPU.
