The system's RAM frequency, timings, and quantity

The videocard's number of cards, number of processors, frequency of processors, type of processors, frequency of memory, quantity of memory, bit width of memory, RAMDAC speed

The system's Motherboard, northbridge, southbridge, and other controllers and IMCs

The system's storage, harddrive, solid state drive, or other?

The hard drive, seek time, sustained transfer rate, buffer size, areal density, burst speed, interface speed, latency, and the state of it's data contents

There are more, too, but these tend to be the primary. If you need more information, such as what each means/is, how they impact it, or which you may need most, then feel free to ask again. I'll be watching. =)

Where does a power supply unit go on a computer tower?

Usually in the back, towards the top.

IMPROVED:

Depending on the architecture, it typically goes towards the 'rear' of the computer (recognizeable by the large number of 'ports' for plugs and slots), inside a small bracket at the top. Most cases have a hole cut here for fans on the PSU to vent.

In some unusual case designs such as older LBA boards, and newer Rackmounts, MicroATX, MicroITX, NanoITX, PicoITX, NanoBGA, and similar ultra-small desktops, the power supply may fit on the bottom flat portion of the case, or in the rear bottom.

In some large 'Cube' cases, the PSU is actually an external unit and sets ontop of the case, and feeds cables down into the case.

In laptops, it is usually in the rear or side of the case, located where the power cable connects, but this may vary (such as in Apple computers)
