No.
It was almost always a team of strong humans and computer that was capable of
drawing matches against the top 10 players.

So computers are maybe 2800 (rather 2700) level if you have always some human GM
at hand to study the style and the prefered openings of the human opponent.
He might find some weaknesses (and also strengths to avoid them) in order to
adjust the opening book and some parameters accordingly.

Your home PC is for sure not 2800 level at tournament time controls.
