In general gcc is the best C/C++ compiler. It will adheres to the full ISO C/C++ standard, and has very good optimisations.

Go to http://www.gnu.org

I agree, and most linux distros come with it, so, most likely, you have it

Intel's C compiler is rumored to achieve better optimizations than GCC. Unfortunatley it's neighter free nor portable.
