Allright I am now writing from my new tumbleweed install. Secure Boot is working fine. How do I have to install Nvidia drivers? Do i jsut follow the normal guide or there is any other step I have to take to sign the driver because of secure boot?

Depends on how you install the driver:

i did follow the guide to install it and ended up with this files:

But in kde I cannot select any resolution other than 1024x768.
The gpu i have is a 4090.
Here is my inxi -Ga output, it seems like the nvidia driver is not loading probably.

You need to have a look at the journal messages why the installation/loading of the driver failed.

When installing packages/drivers via zypper, you will always have verbose informations directly and already can see when something fails.
