I found this tonight: http://www.logicsupply.com/components/cases/expandable/mc600/
Dimensions (WxHxD) 334 x 64 x 198 mm / 13.1 x 2.5 x 7.8"
It's 4.2L large. You lose the internal PSU capability from the prototype steam enclosure Valve made, but if you can power it with an external brick then its got the form factor.
You could use a Pico PSU with an AC adapter like this which would give you enough power for a 65w intel CPU and a 75w GPU: http://www.mini-box.com/12v-16A-AC-DC-Power-Adapter
Then if you want a faster GPU, just buy a second AC adapter, and hook the 12v line straight to the PCI-E plugs on the graphics cards. Might have to make a custom adapter to go from the 4pin plug to the PCI-E plugs.
So far this is the closest I've found to a console sized pc case that can fit a dual width full height graphics card.
