It's a driver issue, I had the same problem, try using this Beta driver from Nvidia, it fixed my issues.

Tried that. Played for 2 days with hiccups only (minor freezes in the game) and now it's back to crashing again. What else can I try?

Whenever I open the costume designer, mini map, or even a player's info, the game freezes, even running on minimum. Following is my system info:
