I got this case of a IBuyPower Desktop computer for only like $150 bucks. I’m a total noob with computers and I have no idea what it needs to be able to run. Can any help me figure out what parts I need to buy to make this computer work? I attached a photo of the inside. It’s a IBuyPower Slate MR 203i.

The picture needs to be rotated counterclockwise, if you look at the machine like that, there should be a small metal box in the bottom left corner with cables running all over the place. (You may need to pull off the side panel on the other side as well.)
Does the machine boot? What are you wanting it to do and what does it do?Comment

If I am making it out right this should be your motherboard ASRock B560M-C

Confirm this by looking for the Model number just below the CPU cooler could not make out the last letter.
I see the power cables connected like others have stated do not see the Power Supply and depending on what you are wanting to do they are not cheap. Having the make and model of the power supply would be helpful.
Would also look at getting more RAM on stick would mead single channel and you should be running dual channel with two or more.
Also need the make and model of the display card that is installed so we can make sure that the current and or future power supply will be sufficient.Comment
