Maxwell GPUs have 254 type-less general purpose registers and one special register with id 255, ''nvdisasm'' shows it as RZ and ''envydis'' as 0x0. Writing here is a no-op unless there are side effects. Reading from RZ is returns zero. The fewer registers a shader uses, the more it can be parallelized.

General purpose registers or GPRs are 32 bits long and are the same for all operations, these are given meaning on the instructions. Half float instructions are SIMD and operate on 16 bit pairs, meanwhile double instructions take two registers to operate. uint64 instructions are read two subsequent registers but operate on individual uint32 values extending their domain through the carry flag.
