Start there, and then post any specific questions you might have.

A word of caution: Bitcoin/Litecoin mining is a very technical and relatively complicated process for the average consumer, and requires at least a base knowledge of computer hardware/software. If you don't know what you're doing, you could end up wasting money in a best case scenario, and destroying all your hardware in a worst case scenario.

You need a PC motherboard with lots of PCI-E slots and a heavy duty PSU and powered risers especially if you intend to use the small PCI-E slots.

I would rather mine on 7990s these days than 7950s they are much more efficient.

It's only really worth mining Litecoins this way.

No. i have never installed a GPU before, plug it in, what do you mean? Like put it in a electrical outlet and that is all? And why do i need 3 costume built pc, 1 laptop is not enough?

Have you ever installed a video card before? You plug it in, hook up the power, and install the drivers. With 10 GPUs you're going to need more than 1 computer, probably at least 3 seperate custom-built computers.
