I really doubt it.   I assume you are suggesting this for the purposes of bitcoin mining, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here.  PCs even a year or two old will consume more power than whatever they are mining unless they are highly optimized.  You'd want to use liquid cooling as well.  Junk PCs and other junk electronic parts are fairly unlikely to be worthwhile.
