GPU Drivers not recognized until a few minutes after logging into Windows

Recently I've been facing an issue. When I boot my PC up and log in to Windows, my PC seems to take some time to recognize the GPU Drivers and software like HWM and Afterburner fail to detect a GPU. After a couple of minutes, my screen goes black for a couple of seconds and then everything goes back to normal. When the drivers aren't detected, stuff like NCP and GeForce Experience also don't show up in the system tray or the context menu. The GPU fans are all running properly when this happens and considering I have a Ryzen 5 3600, I wouldn't get any display at all if it was the GPU itself that wasn't being detected. 

 

I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me figure out what's happening here. I've tried performing a fresh install of the GPU drivers via. DDU but it didn't help. Also, I've recently made some big upgrades to my system, namely the Motherboard, Processor and RAM and this issue only started happening after I reinstalled windows last Sunday.
