I hope to increase the fsb some more and hope to get around 1150 stable, are there any timings in the above pic that might benefit from being loosened so I could do this?
Seems strange they have 2.1v in the EPP profile, there's no chance they're stable at those volts without some good cooling imo.
1.6v isn't an option on my board btw, 1.8v is the minimum and it seems to scale ok up to ~1.9v but they start to get a little warm from that point, nothing toasty though

I highlighted some parts for you.
Just because they have 2.1V written in the EPP doesn't mean they actually need it. I'm still convinced this is a mediocre bin of the Elpidas that we saw first in the OCZ Blade series, their characteristics just fit perfectly to what the OP is describing. I've never tested the 1GBit ProMos ICs, but compared to old ICs made by them this just doesn't fit.
Price of course is a ripoff. In this case the premium you pay for the Dominator GT series is in no way justified, while it's fine for the DDR3 GTs in my opinion.
