Hello everyone...!!!
I have
Asus z370-p
Intel i5 8400
Vengeance 3600 16gb

I had a faulty ripjaws before vengeance
I was working on pc and bsod appeared
Pc turned off then i tried 3 4 times but system didn't boot up and had no display
I took ripjaws out and placed new vengeance in it after 4days but still same issue no display...i have another pc running i3 processor 8th gen i placed that on my z370 and it booted and went to the bio and was asking to update my bios i think it was wiped..then i did a new bios from usb and bios were back...but still my i5 processor is not working on it
I tried i7 and i3 both worked fine 8th and 9th gen both....but i5 8th and 9th not working at all .....i did bios 3 4 times old to new but didnt helped....any solution????

What bios version on Asus z370-p currently?
What model i5 ?
Is it even on list of supported cpus?

Bios are 3004....and i5 8400 was using this processor on this board since day one and was working flawless, now after ripjaws the bios wiped out....and now i5 is not supported tired i5 8400, 8500, 8600k, 9400 etc but it works flawless on any 8th 9th gen i3 and i7
 
Try with single ram module. Try it in different ram slots.
If cpu socket pins got bent, some ram slots may not be operational anymore.

Are you sure about model numbers of your cpus?
Are cpus delidded?
Do model name labels on heat spreaders look genuine?
Could those be fake/counterfeited cpus?

Yes i tried all four ram slots with single ram stick of 2666mhz and 2133mhz everything works on i7 processor and i3 processor...
But when any i5 cpu is placed but no display, it won't boot and cpu didnt warm up only fans spins......

Did you check cpu socket for bent/broken pins?
Could your i5 cpus be fake/counterfeited ?
Could they have been subjected to aggressive/extreme overclocking (to death) ?
Yeah checked the pins they are ok and i5 cpus are working on another motherboards tried on h370 and h310m
