using PhysX with an AMD graphics card
When trying to run the (64 bit) samples of the PhysX SDK with an AMD graphics card (Windows 7 64), an error "nvcuda.dll missing" occurs. What can I do?

You can't use hardware accelerated PhysX with an AMD card. You can use PhysX on the CPU just fine though.

Re: using PhysX with an AMD graphics card
Why would there be a driver to use the SDK without special hardware? To be clear, you cannot use CUDA without a card from nvidia, but you do not need an nvidia card to use the PhysX SDK. I don't use PhysX but I imagine all this is covered somewhere in the RDP section of their site or in docu that came with the SDK. Dig a bit.

Re: using PhysX with an AMD graphics card
The physx drivers come with the NVIDIA Graphics drivers. So if you dont have a NVIDIA GPU then you need to to download the physx drivers separately from here;
