This is the 5th tutorial and this time we're going through the x64/Intel 64 register set. This will be the final tutorial on on just theory for a while, next time we'll start coding again with our new arsenal of registers.
Big things happened in the change from x32 to x64, the new register set is much more flexible and larger. We won't go through the MMX, SSE, x87 or any other registers even though they may have been added at this point. I want to address these registers along with the extensions to which they belong, we'll look at each of the SIMD registers along with their respective instruction sets.
Turn captions on because if I notice that I've missed something or some the text is too blurry to make out, I'll supply a caption explaining.
