Engaging the A/C clutch at higher RPMs and/or with the compressor loaded will cause more wear and tear. But rolling the windows up and down wears out the motor, cranking the engine wears out the starter, etc, so I wouldn't worry about it too much other than turning off the A/C if you plan on hitting high RPMs.
