It's an interesting thought.

But such a machine could be likened to a committee, bound by a charter to
always produce a yes-no decision.  The correctness of it's judgements would
be always be limited by the the intelligence of it's least sensible member.

So it would be with a computer cobbled together from parts (even if such a
thing were possible).

All would be hampered by the bottleneck of the weakest component.
