I crammed a GTX 1080 and a Cryorig H5 into a Raijintek Metis.
You must use an SFX power supply. You should really ventilate the top somehow.
Mine is very well modded and i have a build log but never got around to posting it, it is heavily modified.

It was extremely difficult to put together and took a highly experienced builder multiple days of fitting adjustments and cable management just to make it fit.

That said i do believe it is by far the smallest case you can do it with.
 


Wow! That is crazy small. The first one you listed looks nice.
