so these will work with the new 11th gen cpus out of the box? i notice there is only the launch version of the bios of this motherboard on gigabyte's website.

Yes, the motherboard supports 11th Gen Intel Core processors out of the box.

Hey guys, if I use a 10700k in this board (previous gen chip), can be used a set of 3200mhz Ram? A Gskill 2*8gb 3200mhz XMP Profile. thanks in advance

If you use a 10700k (10th Gen Intel Core i7) in this board, you can use a set of 3200MHz RAM. The motherboard supports DDR4 2933 / 2666 / 2400 / 2133 MHz memory modules for 10th Gen Intel Core i7 processors, so 3200MHz RAM will work but may run at a lower speed unless overclocked.

is this good for overclocking?

Yes, the GIGABYTE Z590 AORUS ELITE is good for overclocking. It features a Direct 12+1 Phases Digital VRM Solution with 60A DrMOS and Shielded Memory Routing for Better Memory Overclocking.

Intel Chipset, is it active (fan) or passive (non-fan) cooling ?

Passive, there is not a chipset fan.
