Technically no, but I am not sure how what options there will be on the
motherboard. I've been trying to read up on it, but though you should be
able to only disable SecureBoot, it seems it sometimes also disables
more.
My current motherboard is from Gigabyte. Probably will buy from this
company again as I don't have any issues with it. PSU wise it is another
story though :P (but don't think I need to replace the PSU)

I quite like SecureBoot. This way you can avoid attacks on the boot
sector.
