hi all just wandering what your opinions of the 5000d are as my current tower is getting a bit old now and the usb ports have all fallen out and other things going wrong, currently got a phanteks enthoo pro i think, anyway i have a gigabyte z790 pro with an msi meg 360mm all in one water cooler and a gigabyte 490, will i be ok for space in a 5000d or would i need the bigger 7000d, any help would be appreciated.

I've got a 5000D and it's a nice little case (well, it's not that little).
There's a decent amount of room in it and I think you'll be fine with most, if not all current GPUs. Where space is a bit tight is AIOs. I'm not familiar with the MSI AIO you mention but I know the Arctic Freezer III AIOs won't fit nicely in the top due to the thicker radiator. You could mount it in the front I believe or in the top if you mounted the fans sort of outside the case in a pull config (outside the main body of the case but underneath the removable top panel thing). Most of the "standard" height AIOs should fit OK though (such as Corsairs own H150), so it may well be fine.
I'm happy with the case, although as @zaniro suggests it may be worth looking around at some of the other offerings. Myself I'd probably consider the Lian Li 207 or Antec Flux (non-Pro) if I didn't have the 5000D but I'm not looking to change to them from the 5000D.
