What bios settings do I need to change before installing Linux?

So I got a new HP Victus 2023, and I want to install Fedora on it, it has an RTX 4050 and has win11 preinstalled, my last laptop was a 2014 Toshiba and I only had to disable secure boot for Linux to run, is there something else to disable before installing Fedora ? Maybe TPM?

My thinkpad from 2017 has a setting for Windows vs. Linux sleep (i think sleep level 3 being bugged that generation or something?). Better google your specific model.

Linux will run fine with secure boot you just have to have it set for other OS not Windows specifically, however, it is a pain in the ass and if you have physical control over your machine I see no good reason to enable it, it significantly compliciates things like building your own kernels.
Is secure boot required for LUKS?
I'd say experiment. It's fun and kinda mandatory in the Linux world 😉
