Edit - AMD released a 5 TFLOP GPU in  January 2011 for the same 375W as the Vega 64. Which, again, means little since Terascale was so bad it's likely much worse than the 4 TF GPU in the PS4 Pro.

Actually March 2011 (March 8 to be exact), and it's a dual GPU, the Radeon HD 6990, so those 5 TFlops are highly theoretical

Terascale was actually not nearly as bad as you seem it to remember, especially the 4xxx and 5xxx series did compete pretty well with NVidia. In fact, at the time AMD was making fun of NVidia being so unefficient and running hot (Termi, anyone? Here in a Hitler rant ^^) that they even made videos about it (can't find them now). GCN was of course much better, but Terascale wasn't that bad either.

You could also have come with the 7990, also a dual GPU, but with 8TFlops in May 2013. Or that a 12TFlops GPU existed in 2014 already (R9 295X2, 500W TDP). Or a 16TFlops GPU in April 2016 (Radeon Pro Duo, 350W TDP). All of them are dual GPU, btw, which makes the TFlops highly theoretical.
