I have a 16GB G.Skill DDR5-6400 stick and found a good deal on a 16GB Corsair DDR5-6400. Both have same speed and timing, but different brands. Will this cause stability issues? Should I stick to identical modules or is mixing RAM okay as long as specs match?

While matching specs is the most important factor, mixing RAM brands can sometimes cause subtle stability issues even with identical speeds/timings. For best reliability, I'd recommend sticking with identical modules. The small savings usually isn't worth the potential headaches of troubleshooting memory problems.
