I don't see it either. YMMV.
24 liters is a bit big for itx but guess there's a lot of room inside.
It's not as roomy as you'd think. There was a late-breaking design change that basically inverted the entire chassis that changes the way that air flows through it a negatively effects GPU cooling. You'll want more room for fans than this has since there is no top exhaust capability.
I have built in several ITX cases including the Louqe S1, NR200P, Fractal Ridge and Hyte Revolt 3. I found this the Corsair to be the worst to build in. There were several reasons for this:
1)It is quite large compared to the rest. The final build ends up being not much smaller than an mATX build.
2)The case format is awful, imo. The mobo and GPU point downward. To access them you have to tilt the machine on it's side. The GPU IO is so close to the bottom that the DisplayPort cable was under a lot of tension from the short radius that this format caused. I ended up buying a small DisplayPort right angle connector to make this work better. But having all of the mobo and gpu io seems like a dealbreaker to me. When you want to access them, you tilt the case on its side, and if you happen to have a usb stick plugged into the external USB on the case, be sure to get on amazon and buy a replacement, because you just broke that by bending it. The Hyte had this same layout and thus the same issue, but at least with the Hyte, the GPU mount leaves enough room for the displayport.
3)The case format is awful, part 2 - The psu cable is designed to mount to external velcro straps on the back of the case. It looks so cheesy and ill-planned out. It's like they built the thing, realized the design didn't work, and then just tacked on an awful workaround.
4)It's really had to build in. Despite being big, I found there was no room to do effective cable routing. It was a struggle to get an AIO to work because there's no bending room for the AIO tubing without it rubbing fanblades.
5)It feels rickety and is the opposite of rigid. Almost nothing screws down, it's almost entirely friction-fastened plastic and very thin metal, so when you pick it up, it just flexes and feels like it wants to come apart.
6)The panel gap consistency and overall fit and finish are about as good as a Tesla.
