Mastering x86-64 Assembly: A Beginner's Guide to CPU Registers

Ready to dive into x86-64 assembly? This beginner-friendly video breaks down CPU registers like RAX, RBX, and more in Yasm assembly. Learn how to use general-purpose registers, respect the ABI to avoid debugging nightmares, and optimize code by minimizing RAM hits. We?ll cover callee-saved registers, function arguments, and why you shouldn?t mess with the stack pointer. Perfect for coders looking to master low-level programming.
