Windows 10: Changing log in question

I am using windows 10 pro version 1903. Recently, I thought someone had found out what my sign in password was on my computer. (when I start up my computer and then log in) I am the only person on the computer. I changed it to some long password and wrote it down. I found out I was wrong so I really do not want that long of a password now. I am trying to change it back and when it asks for my current password, it tells me that it is the wrong password. So I restarted the computer and had no trouble signing in with the long password. I am going to accounts/log in and that is where I am trying to change it. The only thing that I have noticed is when I start up the computer and on the screen it says "John" (not my real name) But when I go to change the password it asks for the password for "John-PC/John" When I check my account it says only "John" I really do not remember ever making a password for "John-PC?John" I really do not understand why I can sign in to my computer with this long password, but when it asks for my current password, it says that the long password is incorrect. I am doing it exactly the same as I did when I changed the old password to the long password. Thanks.

New CPU cooler for Ryzen questions and suggestions

Your Ryzen 7 1700X should be close to 4.0GHz anyway, so overclocking is pointless.
If the computer freezes then there should be an error listed in the crash logs, most likely a clock watchdog timeout, changing the cooler won't fix it.
I'd suggest leaving the CPU stock and clocking your Ram up a bit.
