AMD already has dedicated raytracing hardware on their GPUs, but are behind Nvidia.
PC games that opted for Nvidia raytracing earlier on run poorly with an AMD GPU with raytracing turned on. Cyberpunk 2077 is an example of this, runs beautifully on Nvidia gpus with rt on, framerate falls through the floor on an AMD card.
Raytracing on the "next gen" consoles PS5 and XBox Series X is done using AMD hardware and runs really well.

Often one can get caught up just comparing RT across vendors, but the reality is that the implementations are different and probably make different trade-offs. It's therefore no wonder that console games often outperform on AMD, and NVIDIA-signed games likewise on NVIDIA cards.
