Mixing up RAM

I'm thinking of adding another 2x 2GB sticks of ram to my current build.

What I got about 6 months ago was some G.Skill PQ PC26400 2x2gb:

Unfortunately OcUK no longer stock this and I was wondering if it was safe to pair it up with this set:

Timings, are similar [5, 5, 5, 15 on the g.skill 5, 5, 5, 18 on the corsair] and the voltage range is 1.8-1.9v for both.

I've read its best to stick with the same manufacturers and speeds, obviously I can't stick to the former so I'm just looking for some advice whether I'm safe going with this corsiar set instead.

Any help is appreciated ;-)

@ Yellowbeard, I'm using Vista 64, mainly for imaging and rendering work, I feel the extra ram will come in handy, esp. for rendering and working between mutiple programs at once.

I'm running things at stock for the time being for day to day use. As far as using the same brand, that is my dilema as I can't find any of the g.skill ram I currently have.
