Hi Bill,

You didn't say whether your K3 has the 100W option (KPA3), but if it  
does,  are you sure it's not the fans?  Maybe kicking up to a higher  
speed than they did previously?

You can turn the fans on manually to see what they sound like at all 4  
speeds with the CONFIG:KPA3 item in the menu.  See the entry for the  
KPA3 setting in the manual for details.
