Too tight belts = Rambo overheats?

Today, I tighten X and Y belts in order to prevent layers shifts that were appearing more and more often. 

First (approx 30min) print was OK, but during the second one, I started to feel wierd smell comming from Rambo. Rambo was totally hot all over the board. After cooling down and anothet run, the result was completely the same - slight smell and hot Rambo.

I disassembled Rambo and did inspection - no burns, all connectors OK.

Could really over-tightening the belts cause this? Do stepmotors need more power and thus Rambo overheats?
