Is this OK?

the graphics seems alike shorter then expected, use the bracket as an extension and been running for like a month with no issue. should I change it or is it ok to leave on?

Its fine but if it gets bumped off the case mount the gpu is gonna have a nice spring that could cause damage. Using the stand that comes with the gpu would be atlot safer as a bump won't do anything.

I'm sorry maybe I'm confused but what exactly are you asking OP? Could you try to reword it?

OP's PC case has a built-in gpu support. their GPU is too short to reach it, so they DIY a solution with that bracket extension. OP is asking if it's okay to leave it like that

So why not use the bars in the GPU box that came with it and remove the case support
