64 bit compiler for Windows 7

[dominover]

I know this question gets asked allot but mine is very specific.
I have been using Codeblocks with a MinGW 32-bit compiler on windows XP and have recently upgraded to Windows 7. I'm possibly the last person in the world to do so ;)

I wanted to use Codeblocks again but the problem I have is that it does not come pre-setup with a MinGW 64-bit compiler and I can't seem to find a 64 bit codeblocks for windows anyway. I need it to be 64 bit because I'm building small projects for work where everything is 64 bit . I know there is some technical way of adding a 64 bit compiler to Codeblocks but it's troublesome and the last thing I want to spend days getting to work.

So here's my question. I am going to take the leap and change my IDE and compiler to something else. What is a good 64 bit IDE I can use on Windows with a pre-fitted 64-bit C/C++ compiler. I was hoping for free open source. I'm looking for recommendations if anyone could provide some. Maybe there's a great IDE which can easily have a 64-bit C++ compiler added to it.

Thanks

clang3.7 with Microsoft CodeGen
"your code can take advantage of language features that are not currently available in the Visual C++ compiler, including C99 complex types and C++14 extended constexpr support. And because the Clang-based compiler generates the same debug information format as the Visual C++ compiler, you’ll still be able to debug your code with the same great Visual Studio debugger experience."

(Note: the compiler is 32-bit, but it can generate both 32-bit and 64-bit images).

Thanks Borges.. Any other suggestions are welcome.
I forgot to mention, I would also like a cross platform ide and compiler type if possible.

What I'm currently leaning towards is Code::blocks with a tdm-gcc compiler suite.

Cygwin:
A full-fledged POSIX/UNIX environment for Windows that brings its own GCC adaptation.

CINT:
Although it doesn't compile (it's an interpreter), it's conformant with C++03. Interesting at least and good for fast production:

OpenWatcom:
Most people aren't aware but OpenWatcom is still alive (mostly) and freely available: https://github.com/open-watcom/open-watcom-v2

Thanks NoXzema.
I just discovered that there is a MinGW 64 bit compiler suite available. I'll definitely be going with that or tdm.
