Intel’s chief performance strategist (yes, the company has such a position) Ryan Shrout and technical analyst for storage systems Allyn Malventano provided, in fact, the first official test of the company’s promising flagship – Core i9-11900K … We, of course, would like to compare the performance of this CPU with its direct competitors in games and real applications, but instead it is proposed to evaluate the performance of an SSD: it turns out that a solid-state drive paired with a Core i9-11900K is faster than with AMD’s flagship Ryzen 9 5950X …

It follows from the diagram that the same SSD (in this case it was a Samsung 980 PRO with PCIe Gen4 support) with a Core i9-11900K is 11% faster. In this case, the drive was connected to the lines of the interface bus, for which the processor is responsible, and not the chipset. The average user is unlikely to be looking for an exact match of ports, controllers and interface lines, but, nevertheless, Intel has another reason to say that the Core i9-11900K is still better than the flagship competitor.
And here one more point should be noted. AMD has already implemented PCIe Gen4 support in the X570 chipset, Intel claims compatibility – when using a motherboard based on the Z490 chipset with 11th generation Intel Core processors. So it is not yet clear how this support will be implemented (most likely limited), with which CPUs and which motherboard models. And the full implementation of PCIe Gen4 will only be in motherboards based on the Z590 chipset.
