All software has bugs, so you'll never have a 100% effective anti-cheat. It's going to be an arms race between cheaters and game devs, and the cheaters will always find a way.
All kernel-level anti-cheat does is introduce security vulnerabilities to your system and delay the inevitable.
There will also always be external methods to cheating, like screen recording based.
MSI is releasing a monitor, with cheating built in... Granted it only "highlights" things but still.
