For a general reference, here [0] (PDF) is a somewhat detailed description (that is, it actually discusses how this particular implementation solves the problems that arise before it) of an out-of-order implementation for a simplistic RISC ISA. Suffice to say, it doesn't really have all that much in common with the classical 5-stage RISC pipeline.
Title should be "Out of Order RISC-V core from scratch - Specula". Don't know why it was changed.

I'm often dismissive of RISC-V posts, but I really loved this one. It does a great job of presenting the material: good graphics, readable text and references at the bottom of the text. I've been focused on smaller CPUs on durt cheap process nodes, but this was great.

> 11.9 MHz (meaning it is as slow as a herd of snails traveling through peanut butter)
To be fair, this is almost 6x faster than the Apollo Guidance Computer and running on hardware accessible for a low cost.
