Weird glitch/screen splitting when booting up windows or restart

Hello,
I recently built a system, details below. I've been having this weird issue, sometimes when I restart my pc after a windows update, it boots into windows with the screen kinda torn/glitched. It fixes itself after a restart, sometimes I have to restart twice. It happened quite often on the first week, after every 2-3 updates. I stopped all windows updates for 2 weeks, the problem seemed to go away. However, I did a clean windows 10 reinstall 2 days ago, turned off updates. Today, I got a prompt to restart the pc to install an audio software update, and it booted with the glitched screen again. I had to restart the pc two more times before it fixed itself.

The glitch only happens after windows boots, bios and the post screen is fine. It seems to only happen after an update. It doesn't happen often enough for me to try reproducing the glitch. When the pc boots normally, everything runs fine, no glitches or issues while gaming or under load, everything runs fine.

I'm not sure if its triggered by some update issue or its just coincidence and happens when my pc boots up.
The glitch pattern is always the same. exact same lines and splits.
I'm wondering if this is an issue with my GPU. Do I need to RMA it? I can't seem to find anything similar online.

Here is a picture of the glitch.

You can try to do a clean install of Windows
