It'll run games just fine, yes.

I suggest you look at Borderlands 2, Grim Dawn, Fallout New Vegas, BioShock Infinite, and Shadowrun Returns - see if any of them look interesting to you.

Much like FPS, there are a LOT of different sub-categories of RPG.

Do you want a hack and slash RPG like Diablo III or Grim Dawn, where the RPG elements are just leveling up and such?

A turn-based RPG that stays true to the old tabletop games, like Shadowrun Returns or the Avernum series?

A MMORPG like world of warcraft, or dungeons and dragons online?

A FPS/RPG like Borderlands or Fallout?

A game with RPG elements, like Assassin's Creed or DOTA 2?

A "Classic" RPG like Final Fantasy or emulated RPGs?

Also, are you looking for games on the PC or on a console? If it's a PC, how powerful is your computer?

I would suggest BL 1 and 2 you should be able to get BL1 with just about everything for under $10 for PC and that will last you hours. As far as tip just have fun other than that it really depends on the game you want tips about.

Oh as far as Mass effect you may want to start with number 2. While I and more RPG fans prefer the first one, #2 is better stream lined you can probably pick up the trilogy pretty cheap too.

The best more recent RPG's I've played:
Dragon Age: Origins - This is a group based game, where you control 4 people with a lot of dialog in the game.
Mass Effect is similar to Dragon Age, but in a scify setting. If you like this, there is also Star wars: knights of the old republic that is old, but good.
Dragon Age II - mostly panned due to not living up to Dragon Age: Origins standard, but is a good game if you don't play it right after DAO.
The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim - this is an open world sandbox like game. It is from the perspective of a single avatar. You do not have classes, and instead can just level up skills to your liking, and quest to your hearts content. There are also thousands of mods for the game. The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind and Oblivion are also great games.
Fallout 3 and New Vegas is similar to Skyrim, but with a post apocalyptic set.
Titan Quest, Diablo 3, Grim Dawn, The incredible adventures of Van Helsing, Torchlight - these are all hack and slash games, which I find fun at times, boring at others.

They are quite different. Dishonored is more of an action game with RPG elements. Fallout New Vegas is a post apocalyptic version of Skyrim. I liked Dishonored a lot, and I did not play New Vegas, but I did play the origina Fallout 3, which I liked a lot. I would say Fallout has more replay value, Dishonored is great for 1 or 2 play throughs, but then gets old.

Frankly, the term RPG is being thrown around very loosely on some of these games. Dishonored is not an RPG at all, neither is Borderlands. They have a few RPG elements, but they aren't RPG's. At least not by the definition most would use.

If you want to really experience an RPG, the way the hardcore fans would describe, go with Dragon Age: Origins. It is the best true RPG out there in more recent times. Mass Effect would also be a good place to go.

Skyrim is a sandbox game. It doesn't have the strong story line, which may be something you desire.

That said, Dishonored is a great game, but it is not an RPG. It has some RPG elements, though.

Dragon Age: Origins is best.
Dragon Age 2 is ok, but the landscape repeats itself a lot, and armor on your companions is handled poorly. I can't stand the game if I recently played Dragon Age: Origins, yet if I played it after I hadn't played Origins in a few months, I'll enjoy it a lot. Basically, Origins is just a lot better, even if DA2 is pretty good.

Dragon Age: Origins is like the classic RPG's that started it all. It's a modern version of Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights.
