They aren't graphics drivers, no matter what card you have you will need PhysX either way. The difference is that with Nvidia cards the physx processing is done by the GPU, while the AMD cards leave that work to the CPU(which in your case won't be much of a welcome).

Because you aren't using an Nvidia CPU. Either way any game that uses the PhysX SDK needs the PhysX software installed. Even if the game just uses the non hardware accelerated PhysX, like Dragon Age.
