Debilitating texture glitch on armor, gameplay and cutscenes

Hello, please see attached image. This happens to one of the armor set sin my inventory whenever I equip it. This happens not just in the preview screen but also out and about in the world as I run around.

Playing on PC. I've tried adjusting my graphical settings but I cant seem to find anything that affects this

Should also be noted that this same glitch happens during some cutscenes, but it seems random. A character's textures will explode just like this for one angle, then the camera cuts to a different angle and they're fine. Similarly, the glitch isn't always active when I wear the armor out in the world, it seems to flicker in and out randomly (but more often than not it flickers in)

Would be very appreciative if anyone knows a fix for this, as the armor looks sick as hell and I really want to wear it. Thanks!

    This has been happening to me since I purchased the game on launch. It is seemingly random, but at some point will occur with either hair and armor textures - rarely is happens with the skybox. I have tried everything, up to and including the following:

    (1) Clean install of NVIDIA Drivers
    (2) BIOS Update
    (3) Changing all the Settings to see where it was occurring (none had any impact)
    (4) Disabling all Windows Graphics options, to include HDR
    (5) Numerous clean installations of the Game from Steam
    (6) Shader Cache delete -> Verify Integrity (this will allow the game to reopen, but its inevitable the problem reoccurs within 15-20 minutes)

    I'm on a brand new PC that has never experienced any issues in other games, including newer games like Space Marines II, Hell Divers, etc. Specs are as follows:

    CPU: I9 14900K
    GPU: GTX 4090
    RAM: 32 GB DDR5
    OS: Win 11

    It's absolutely wild and has something to do with a texture error. I'm six hours in and any progress is near impossible. I'm giving it one last ditch effort on a full reinstall, to include Save File deletion. Unfortunately, I'm 6-8 hrs into the game and a refund isn't an option at this point, As a Bioware supporter since the late 90's/ early 2000's - the lack of discussion/ remedy on this matter is disheartening, as it is impacting a significant number of players across the AMD and NVIDIA platforms.
