AMD hasn't been on the right track with their GPUs, ever.
Last time they were clearly and indisputably on top was ~2003-2007 as ATI.
The 9800 XT / Pro were king of the hill, destroyed Nvidia's newest gen.
Nvidia didn't recover until the GTX 8000 series. But from then on, the best ATI / AMD could do was occasionally match Nvidia or undercut them on price.
Look at the scores here. The 9600 pro beating a 5700 Ultra would be like a 9060 XT beating a 5070 Ti today, and the 9700 Pro whipping a 5950 Ultra would be like a 9070 beating a 5090.
