I saw that AMD made their own game rendering API that removed CPU bottlenecks, which I am sure I have, but I use Nvidia, and I can't afford the newer cards (I have a GTX 650 with an Athlon II X4 630) And I wanted to know is the CPU the bottleneck there? Is there a third party API I can use?

Mantle only works in like... one game. Maybe 2. And it's not a big change anyway. A game has to be totally coded for an API in order for it to work. So no, no 3rd party APIs.
