Have you looked at Krita and Blender?

Best option: Use Linux and alternatives to Adobe stuff, if possible. These programs continue to evolve, at some point you might not need the Adobe stuff anymore.

Second best option: Use Linux and run the Adobe stuff inside a Windows VM. GPU passthrough is not that difficult to configure if you need it. You can run your Windows games on Linux in many cases, so it's most likely not needed to run a Windows VM with GPU passthrough just for gaming.

Third best option: Use OS X instead of Windows or Linux, and run the Adobe stuff on OS X (it's also natively supported there)

Worst option: Continue to use Windows

You can use Windows apps by setting up a KVM(Not a VM, but a KVM for virtual machine manager) and use a utility called Winapps along with it. This will allow you to launch and use Windows applications as if they were native(drag and drop support, clip sharing and whatnot).

As I recall, Adobe products are supported by Winapps and/or Cassowary

Edit: keep in mind, you only do the above if you really want/need it. Since the initial setup is not hassle free at all

buy a used m1 Mac book with 16GB ram or a janky garage sale (x64) laptop and install puppy Linux.

Also, a rasberry pie is like $40; an intel nuc is <$200. Inexpensive ways to learn without killing your breadbasket.

Why run one when you can run two?

I have a 6900xt as well and it works fine. I use linux mint. I have not been back to windows except for VR and i am looking at getting that running as well. Mint tends to run packages made for ubuntu and debian with minimal hassle. I do not use photo shop but blender gets a performance uplift from being on linux. Ai workloads do well on this setup with the caveat that the support for the 6900xt involves tracking down obscure forum posts to get torch to recognize the gpu.

Get a Mac for Adobe related stuff, install Linux on your other machine. /thread

Earlier I left a comment that maybe Zorin OS could make it work... nevermind, I found their own page where they provide suggestions for alternates:

https://help.zorin.com/docs/apps-games/alternatives-to-windows-apps/

which may be helpful in it's own way, even if Adobe apps still won't work.

Yeah, I'll go with name people here and say such with Windows.

If work provide you a machine, then use separate machines for work and home needs. If you're freelance, when you need to upgrade, plan it well and buy a second machine that is better for gaming/productivity. Now you have two machines and can separate your life.

Can you get away with old versions of Adoba suite? Latest versions typically don't work but you may be able to get old versions running without dual boot by using Wine.
