I found this old computer that we had, its been gathering dust so i dont know if anything is good, but the hard drive looks relatively clean, so any chance i can get some parts and not have to buy new ones?

Take the SATA cables fans if you want. The CPU and memory has some gold. Power supply, harddrive might be reused. Take the heatsink and put it on a raspberry pi

that looks old, what processor is sitting in it?

Old? I bet 6-7 years. There is PCI-E.

take off the heatsink and snap a photo of the processor twit.
I like to salvage the IDE ribbons from old computers for chopping up for electronics projects. Cables are always useful, and cheaper than buying a whole reel of cable for one small repair or project.
Motherboards have a few decent salvagable parts, case fans are always nice to have for various things, power supplies can be turned into acceptable bench power supplies, hard drives can be re-used if large enough, or if dead, dismantle and make wind-chimes.

The fan
The cables
The optical drive
Is there anything salvageable here?

Shill the processor and ram off on eBay, you got the golden ticket for retards
"I7 PROCESSOR AT 2.8ghz!!!"
And the ram will work that way too
As for op, case fans, hdd and cables are always useful to have around, things like the mobo, ram, etc aren't that useful. Maybe keep the processor if you like keeping them, I don't like throwing out something that neat.
Heat sinks can be melted down to make stuff if you have a charcoal furnace
