What memory strap are you using?

Oh yeah, haven't mentioned that. I'm using the 333 strap with 2.40B multiplier.

The MCH voltage is already at 1.22v.

That PL10/11 is killing performance...

G.skill does bin their kits "all mad crazy", it's entirely possible that's the best your sticks can do... You could try OCing them individually. However, I'd focus on reigning in PL, that should boost clock for clock performance nicely.

-EDIT-
You can download memset to play with some subtimings(PL) from within windows...

Ok so, how about I stay where I am and test lowering the performance level?
Yes I know memset, but I don't really like using OC tools in an OS. Is it that good? Can it stress test and such?

I usually don't either. But I have experimented with lowering PL a click at a time within windows then benching and testing with memtest and have yet to kill any components(knocks on wood). But yeah, I'd definitely stay where you are now, PL7/8 should be doable and translate into a nice performance boost(BW, PI times, ect).
-EDIT-
Personally, I use windows memtest since it's convenient. GL with the tweaking!

Hmmm, maybe, perhaps another G.skill PI 1100mhz owner can come help you? AFAIK your modules sport Promos ICs and my Patriot Viper series is PSC based... They handle a little differently, PSC seems to scale slightly better(It's hit or miss though, my second kit doesn't like anything beyond 2.1v

) with voltage than Promos. I can run my voltage friendly kit as high as 1164mhz PL6 on the 266 strap, but that required 2.2v. Your kit typically takes 1.8-1.9v to do the same.
You might have some luck finding another users settings in this thread too...

GL, wish I could help more but I never loosened subtimings to the max, in fact I never run PL above 6. It slaughtered clock for clock performance and that's one of my peeves.

Dropped DRAM voltage to 1.92v
Enabled DDR write training.
Give some input if you can

Lowered TRFC from 60 to 52. Planning to mess around with DIMM 1 & 2 Clock Skew whatever that does

Is 2.40D better then B? And I'd have to use the 400 MCH strap right?
Also, I'm at PL8 now. I just went into the bios and set DRAM Performance enhance to [turbo] and gained another 100 mb/s copy speed

Also entered the following sub-timings: 4-4-8-52-4.

Thanks. Was running the 1066 profile because I noticed "no difference".
When I get home I'm going to try and break 1130. Here's a few things I had in mind:
- MCH strap 400
- Memory multiplier 2.40D
- MCH voltage 1.30 (it's at 1.26v now)
- DRAM termination, Channel A/B ref., MCH/DRAM ref all to 50% of the DRAM voltage
- DRAM voltage up to 2.0v, above voltages up to 1.0v.
- MCH clock skew 50ps
On the other hand, most people seem to use the 333 strap
