UPS and Power Supplies are not all the same.  
If the UPS has a stepped voltage output (not smooth sine wave like the
local public grid has) in large enough steps to mess up the power
supply, you wind up with no UPS in effect.

CLEARLY if there are enough steps to the stepped output of the UPS
(which depends on the UPS brand/model), the PC power supply happily will
see it as a sine wave input.  How many is "enough" depends on the power
supply and the load.
