I've tried Xming before and found it very good. Cygwin is good too but Xming is quicker to install. If you need a more complete suite of Unix/Linux tools on Windows, maybe Cygwin is the way to go. But if you just need an X server that allows you to run remote X apps on your Windows PC, and want it quick, then Xming + putty would do just fine.
About VNC, can't say much about it.
