VRoom A high end RISC-V implementation

If you're at the point in your career where you're not sure which is the right textbook then "A Quantitative Approach" is likely to be really tough to get through.

Computer Organization and Design, by the same authors, is considered a better choice for a first book. I personally loved it and couldn't put it down the first time I read it.

Definitely recommend this textbook as a great read - it remains one of the very few textbooks I've read end-to-end and genuinely enjoyed.

Any recommendation for books on (System)Verilog

You might like "Digital Design and Computer Architecture, RISC-V Edition" by Harris and Harris.

https://www.google.com/books/edition/Digital_Design_and_Comp...

This book definitely skews pragmatic, hands on and doesn't assume much. Covers both VHDL and Verilog. Has sections on branch prediction, register renaming, etc.

I personally am not into the verilog specific books. For me HDLs are hardware description languages, so first you learn to design digital hardware, then you learn to describe them.

For that I highly recommend: https://www.cambridge.org/us/academic/subjects/engineering/c...

Great first book on the subject.
