If you don't install them, you can't play the games they are used for.
BattleEye - Haven't used, sounds safe.
EAC - very safe, might not like running with heavily modded games (7DTD may prompt to reload without EAC).
They will typically look for anything hooking into the game or that has clear signs of being used to cheat. GPU/Motherboard software will unlikely ever cause an issue, and if there is an overly-rare false flag from the anticheat then any ban will be removed within 2 weeks.
If you have doubts of what software may set them off, close the software before launching the game, and don't use any OSD programs that are literally designed to give advantages not present in the game itself.
What does OSD mean?
Battleye, VAC, EAC are one of the main ones until you go to other types. Some are worse to uninstall, some are more malicious in how it's operating on your system. But some of the main ones are often better than certain "custom" anti-cheat tools that can be even more invasive, or more active outside of the game. As seen with riot's vanguard, or other companies that use more invasive AC (anti-cheat), some adding it to older titles without it. You just have to be aware about the online games you play and if they had anything suspicious going on, before installing.
I've installed some less friendly games, that will have terrible software laying around on your PC. Which is more of an recommendation for VM on your system or gaming dedicated hardware. Or just accepting the current risks around online gaming, where things can get outdated with various risks to their online nature. Just as we have seen with MMO's issue with chatbox fixes, minecraft remote code execution etc, where you kind of need the active support for some games. To how older online titles without patches can be very unsecure?
Sadly these programs on installation are very confusing for the average user? as some are installed together? (unsure) and when giving access, you are not sure what is allowed. one of the reasons as an user the older install wizards had it's pros and cons, and how it installed "step by step". never accept these admin requests by games, until you find the one that you are the most sure about that you need or want to accept. helped me with some titles or just making sure what program I'm allowing.
Any hooks or stuff (be it OnScreenDisplay?) to the screen/rendering can be an issue with some software, some might be whitelisted, some might not be, which can get you banned if used online (not every game have good rules about offline/online services).
Some games give you a choice. For example, Conan Exiles only requires you install it if you want to connect to servers which also use BattleEye. If you're playing solo or on a private server that doesn't use it, you don't need to install it. It just won't let you connect to servers that use BattleEye unless you also have it.
Some other games require it at all times. Destiny 2 and Dead by Daylight both require their respective anti-cheats installed, since they're multiplayer only and private servers aren't a thing.
