Something to bear in mind is that, even if their powers were innate, most of the Rogues would still have the exact same issues with posing threats to the Flash. Captain Cold shouldn't be a non-threat because he relies on a cold gun, he should be a non-threat because he has normal human reflexes, making him a statue next to the Flash.
Thus, I'd say its entirely okay to have them largely still be tech-using villains, especially if you want a "city of mad science" theme for the show. If anything, it'd give the writers an easier time, as its much easier to swallow a technical genius coming up with some specific application of their specialized gadgetry that can pose a challenge for the Flash, than that someone with innate powers hauls out random new Powers Of the Week.
