PuTTY can do X11 forwarding over SSH, but you still need to provide an X

I've never noticed an issue. I've been using it for about 15 years I reckon. I don't recall it nagging at me. I run it on a remote work Windows machine via RDP and the use its X server for all the remote Linux machines. Much better for my workflow than using Citrix. And yes, I know the licence limits for using the home version in a commercial environment.
