Number Keys (1, 2, and 3) make my game stutter/freeze

[Yeevich]

So at any point in the game, even in the main menus, when I use the keys 1, 2, and 3 the game will freeze briefly for a second or two. Doing this after immediately loading into a match will crash the game often. You can imagine this makes gameplay unfun when I try to swap weapon.
I've tried disabling many programs and overlays, unbinding keys, and looking for anything similar on the internet (no results).

Recent changes to my PC and the game include: The update prior to the pacific and a new GPU. I was not having this problem until I upgraded the card and updated the game at the same time.

CPU- Ryzen 5 1600x
GPU- GTX 1660 Ti OC
RAM - 16GB DDR4
MOBO- Gigabyte GA-AB350 Gaming 3
