So Adobe APPS run fine on a PC with a high Resolution monitor?
Has anybody Tested Adobe APPS on Bootcamp on a Mac Pro using a hi Res Monitor?

Your statement 95 percent of the Office uses PC's to run Adobe Suite APPS seems very common these days.
I use to work in IT for a large organization and the graphic design Dept ditched all their Macs in favor of PC's

I'm gonna do the same. Build an AMD Threadripper system.

I don't think APPLE switching to ARM is going to slow big corporations dumping their Macs for PC's in Graphic Design.
LOL. NO. Adobe has serious problems with high-resolution monitor on any OS. Never mind the fact that your options for high-dpi monitors are very limited in the PC world, even when I'm running multiple 4K monitors with Lightroom there's issues with performance. They clearly have some architectural issues in their apps that cause problems with high-resolution displays.

I switched at least half of my editing work to resolve because of this- suuuuuch a relieve! It’s a whole new life as an editor on the Mac Pro with resolve and the afterburner on XDR!

for photos I went with Lightroom CC and don’t look back!

just posting in here, just got the Pro Display XDR. After effects scrubbing the timeline in anything lower than 4096x2304 and its a judder nightmare on playback. Everything else works perfectly well, but the video preview goes nuts below. And it seems really odd for a pro display. Baring in mind my Pro dell 4k didn't have any of these issue running in a scaled resolution.

What graphics card are you using and what version of After Effects?

Pro vega, and latest version of Ae 22.4 I think. But it’s frustrating as in its full 6k it had no issue it’s only with any other resolution.
Edit - 22.5. it's not a GPU issue, the display does it when plugged into my MBP same exact issue.
