Hello,

If you don't explicitly need a module, you shouldn't enable it. By default, the PHP version that's installed with cPanel & WHM will work with most PHP applications.
You can select the needed PHP version and hit 'Save and Build'.

Hello,

Click on "Exhaustive Options List" to see all available Apache and PHP modules. You should choose modules based on your requirements. However I would recommend enabling following modules :

Apache :
Deflate (gzip compression)
Mod Security

PHP :
GD
Mbstring
MySQL
MySQL Improved (MySQLi)
Openssl
PDO
PDO MySQL
Zip

For caching you can use EAccelerator or MemCache. But please note opcode caches will only work when PHP handler is DSO or FCGID and won't work in suphp environment.
