Hmmm, what does it means by Intel Integrated Extreme Graphic? Is it a name of a video card?
How good is it compare to ATI and nVidia Card?

This is onboard video and getting any AGP/PCIXpress video card would be an upgrade IMO.
 
yep, i wouldnt recommend personally, it runs at whatever speed your RAM runs at, and also uses your computers RAM instead of its own...for example the Dell i used to use had onboard and ran at 133mhz and used 64mb of system RAM, which was a big deal when i only 128, which wasnt very long before i upgraded to 640...but thats a moot point
 
As LittleHoov said, using onboard video steals memory from your PC. If you add another card, whatever the quality, it will use its own memory, and free up more memory for the PC. You should see a real performance boost with a another video card.
 
my onboard video card cant even suport direct 3d! and i have it using 128mbs of my ram! lmao yeahhh i need to buy a new card lol
 
but what if i upgrade my memory? I m pretty sure 1GB or 1.5Gb of ram is enough for not playing very high 3d game.
I wanna bought a notebook, for surfing net, listening music, watching video, and play some games, such as CS, WC3
Do i need a graphic card for it? Or a Intel Extreme Graphic (GMA 900) is enough to handle it?

I would recommend getting a graphic card because even if you do get HL2 or WC3 to work it won’t look good at all. You may need to get a PCI graphic card for your computer. I would also look for a notebook with a graphic card.
