I just want to also add that I have the exact same issue, and this is particularly recent as I used Excel on 4k monitors for a couple years. I find it difficult to replicate, but it happens most often when switching tabs on Excel. I have spent the last week trying to pinpoint the issue. I have done the following:

- Fully re-built the registry for Excel
I have a 16 core CPU, 64 GB of RAM, and a 3080 GPU. It's almost funny to see Excel chew through 64 GB of RAM to change tabs.
