I have an MSI Duke 1080ti (320mm long) that I'd like to fit in a small (on the order of 20L or less) mini-ITX case. The first concern is the physical size of the card, then the second being cooling.
The plan is to reuse this card as I move from an older ATX AM3+ build down to a mini-ITX (or perhaps uATX) Coffee Lake build. I'd rather not swap out the card for another one, if at all possible.
I'm currently compiling a list of case options that may work.
Other considerations for the case:
I currently have a Seasonic Focus Plus Gold 850W PSU that I would like to reuse, if possible, so ATX PSU compatibility is a bonus, since SFX/SFX-L PSUs that will support a 1080ti are on the expensive side.
There are no requirements for front ports or external drive bays.
2x 2.5" and 1x 3.5" internal drive bays required.
I have no need for a side panel window.
I've looked at some SFF case lists here: https://gpunerd.com/guides/small-form-factor-sff-pc-case-list

I'm not a huge fan of the Silverstone slim Raven/RVZ cases
Here's a couple I'm considering:
Lian li PC-Q25 (I'm leaning towards this one, but it will barely fit the card, if it does)
Cougar QBX (may require me to purchase a new PSU to use with a card this long)
Corsair Elite 120 Advanced or Elite 130
Silverstone SG10 (takes micro-ATX motherboards and is little bit larger overall)
If you happen to know of any such cases that may accommodate this kind of graphics card (for now, the budget is arbitrarily large), or have any opinions about the ones currently on this list, please let me know.
Interesting, I'm surprised there's no tags for SFF.
