This question is very vague and I'm not sure what you're referring to. Examples may be useful. If you're taking about the difference between different PSU's in a lineup like Corsair's RM550, RM650 etc, then they have the came circuit board and similar components but they higher end ones get higher end parts and more connectors. If you're taking about different brand PSU's being on the same "platform" then that means dfferent brands are using the same original manufacturer and that manufacturer builds the same PSU and just slaps different logo's and a few extras on for each brand they make PSU's for. One example is SeaSonic who has their own line of PSU's but also makes PSU's for other brands like Corsair and Silverstone so they may have a very similar design.

I mean, for example there's the EVGA GD which is the same platform as the pure power 10/11 PSU (FSP Raider II)

 

but I don't know to what extend a different PSU is considered the same platform.

 

What parts can change? PWM/PFC controller, topology, transistors, supervisor IC, etc

and just that?

 

that's the question

 

I linked it exactly because I read it long ago and some questions came to my mind.
