Obviously Gsync only works with Nvidia cards but will the ULMB component work with an AMD card?

EDIT: DISREGARD MY ORIGINAL REPLY. IT DOESNT WORK ON LAPTOP (INTEL)
It works on my laptop (intel graphics), so I'd assume yes.
You toggle ULMB not by software but simply by pressing the first button to the left of the power button, when the display is running at 85, 100 or 120hz.

Would it work on the upcoming AOC G-sync monitor?

flood, what happens if you enable ULMB on an NVIDIA system first, then swap DisplayPort cables to another system running exactly the same timings on another GPU? It might still 'continue to work' that way, once first initialized by an NVIDIA GPU.

Make sure the Vertical Totals are identical (e.g. 1147 in Custom Resolution).
