I want to play around with GCC 4.5 but on GCC's site it says that they don't supply binaries. I think downloading the source and building GCC from scratch is a bit of overkill (even if the OS, I'm using, Windows, is rather obscure).

Where can I download GCC 4.5 for Windows?

(I don't want all of Cygwin, just GCC)

Does MinGW work for you?

http://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html

Through MinGW or Cygwin, as GNU does not provide binaries.

If you don't want cygwin, try mingw instead, it's smaller. There is no gcc.exe.
