I mean the top card is more beefy in size and cooling

Doesn't matter, won't get much air.

The Gigabyte card will be starved of fresh air, so it will run hotter than it otherwise would. In such a scenario, I've used a wedge to force the cards further apart at the top to allow a crack more air, but it isn't a good solution.

 

If risers give problems, get a better riser. They are not made equally.

Once the power is turned down and the fan up, you’ll be ok. Easily make 10+ a day on each card. The riser thing gets annoying but it has its perks.
