No you won't.
When someone says that a resolution is "CPU bound" or "GPU bound" what they mean is that either the CPU or the GPU is the limiting factor in frame rates.
General, CPU usage isn't affected by resolution. GPU usage is. As you raise resolution, a game becomes GPU bound because the gpu has to work harder. CPU total usage stays the same. You will never see better performance by raising resolution. It doesn't unload the CPU, simply makes the GPU work harder.
