Different Timings on the Same RAM model

I have had 1 8GB 2400Mhz corsair vengeance LPX RAM stick for 2 years before finally buying another 8GB 2400Mhz of the same make and model but different color(Previous one was Red this ones Black). I have a i5 7400 and an Asus H110M-CS Mobo. The Mobo was only Two RAM slots so now the 2 8GB RAM is running in a Dual Channel config, as is shown in the Scre enshot

But even though its running in Dual Channel config, the speed and other metrics is different for both RAM.

 

Slot 1Slot 2

 

So are both of my RAMs running in Dual Channel config?? Or is there something wrong?

WTF, this is weird.  May cause instability issues.  I would go to BIOS and put the timings manually to what both sticks are rated for.

Asus Sabertooth x79 / 4930k @ 4500 @ 1.408v / Gigabyte WF 2080 RTX / Corsair VG 64GB @ 1866 & AX1600i & H115i Pro @ 2x Noctua NF-A14 / Carbide 330r Blackout

Went into the Bios and changed the DRAM frequency to 2133 but still showing the same in CPU-Z

Are these okay?? Haven't fiddled with timings before so I have no idea

@IzzyWizzy I would just turn on xmp and wait to see any instability. Honestly I wouldn't even think really miss matched freq would boot its probably incorrect.

Would it void the RAM warranty?? It's has only one Profile of 2400. Also is it safe?

Tried this and PC failed to boot. Its only booting up in non XMP mode.
