Different RAM and timings...

Hello all. Recently I decided to upgrade my RAM from 8GB (2x4) to 16GB (4x4). The first set I have is Samsung Green RAM that is no longer manufactured. It is known for its "overclockability". The set I bought to pair with it was a purely aesthetic decision and is linked below.

Corsair Vengeance Pro

The Samsung runs at 1600mhz and the Corsair runs at 2400mhz. Currently I'm running them both at 2133mhz at 1.6v with 10-10-10-30 timings.

So, on to the question. Should I worry about these timings and try to tighten or loosen them up? I haven't done anything to benchmark and I really don't care about pushing them to the limits. I haven't had an issue so far but I haven't really pushed them either.

I was just hoping to get the opinion of someone who has done this type of thing before. I haven't and I would really like to take all safeguards to not damage my RAM, but the AUTO settings in my BIOS seem unacceptable (9-14-14-38 @1.585v). Thank you for your time.
