At least according to Intel

Intel has released some numbers comparing PCIe Gen 4 NVMe storage performance of the 11th gen Core Rocket Lake-S desktop CPU with AMD's Ryzen 5000 series CPU.

Ex-hack Ryan Shrout, now Chief Performance Strategist at Intel, released a performance slide showing the performance of Samsung 980 PRO 1TB SSD on a Core i9-11900K platform and comparing it to AMD's Ryzen 9 5950X. According to the slide, Intel's platform ends up 11 percent faster in PCMark 10.

At #CES21 we looked at Rocket Lake-S gaming. Here’s a sneak peek of Core i9-11900K PCIe Gen 4 storage performance - up to 11% faster on PCMark 10 Quick System Drive Benchmark vs the 5950X. Thanks @Malventano for the data. Backup: https://t.co/LcI5n5Cok2 pic.twitter.com/NhblHRQJSC

Ryan Shrout also clarified that the test drive SSD was connected via PCIe AIC riser card on an x16 slot on both systems, in order to ensure the best possible results, and an 11 percent increase in performance is a decent result.
