Where is UPS in computer?

It isn't (in the computer). UPS stands for "Uninterruptible Power Supply"; it's a battery backup for your desktop compute and usually they sit under or to the side of the desk. A UPS plugs into the wall outlet and has a built-in battery which TEMPORARILY takes over your power needs when/if the commercial power goes out. Most are capable of operating your computer for no more than 15 minutes and few can run a PC for more than just a few minutes, but if the power goes out it's enough to GRACEFULLY shut down the computer so that you don't loose data.
