Upgrading your GPU when your CPU is the bottleneck does pretty much nothing.

It's quite unlikely your CPU is the bottleneck while playing BO3 with a GTX 580, unless:
- You're playing at a low resolution/lowest graphical settings in order to achieve high fps.
- You're running for example high quality Youtube video or stream in the background
- At that exact moment Windows decided to update itself
- You have some persisting programs using high amounts of CPU cycles (you can check this from task manager). Those could be bugged programs, drivers, portions of Windows or even malware.

In any case, reinstalling BO3 ain't a bad option. One could even suggest uninstall but that would only be to fix you.
