Is This Safe To Use ?
First stick is DDR3L 1600 Mhz 1.35v
Second stick is DDR3 1333 Mhz 1.5v
The motherboard will configure both memory sticks at 1333 Mhz 1.5v which simply means that you're practically overclocking the first memory stick and you're giving too much voltage to it, causing it to unnecessarily consume more power and therefore heat more.
While it's designed to run at 1.35v, the chips are cool enough in general and there's enough surface around the chips to radiate the heat away, so basically running that stick at 1.5v won't make it overheat or cause it to be damaged over time.
Ideally, you should replace the 1333 Mhz stick (the Nanya one) with a DDR3L 1600 Mhz or 1866 Mhz so that both memory sticks will run at 1.35v and 1600 Mhz and you'll get a tiny performance boost and cooler memory sticks.
