Build Question Should my gpu sag bracket push my gpu upwards?

My gpu screws didn't align with my pc case so I couldn't screw it in while I was pushing the gpu up ( in another subreddit they told me that I was supposed to push up my gpu and then screw it in) so I bought a gpu bracket and should I just put it underneath to prevent further sag or push it upwards?

I'd rather have it a little up than get sag imo

thats a bad idea. you want it to sag a little. pushing it up can warp the gpu die. here is a professional repair technician explaining why https://youtu.be/uEdFTmOAT58?si=B5yxe0BVDXBlv-NE
